UCI Cyclo-cross World Cup #9, Zonhoven

Round 9 of the 2025-2026 UCI Cyclo-cross World Cup brings the world's elite to the legendary 'De Kuil' sand pit. This iconic Belgian venue is famous for its steep, terrifying sand descents and equally grueling run-ups that pack thousands of roaring fans into a natural amphitheater. As the penultimate Belgian round, Zonhoven is a decisive test of technical handling and raw power in deep sand.
