Cyclo-cross World Cup – Dublin – Expression of interest – Elite riders

The Cycling Ireland Off-road Commission is seeking expressions of interest from Irish riders to compete in the Elite men and Elite Women’s races at the Cyclo-cross World Cup in Dublin which takes place on Sunday 11 December 2022. There are limited slots available to Irish riders at the World Cup. From those who are selected to race, the commission will be looking to form a National Team (in Irish kit) (up to 4 riders). The other selected Irish riders can compete in their club/team kit.

Selection Criteria
The riders must hold a 2022 UCI competition membership licence with the country code “IRELAND”.
Applications should contain details of a rider’s UCI standings, race results and current form.
All selections are made by the Cycling Ireland Off-Road Commission. The team will be selected on a discretionary basis by the selection panel. The selection panel will consider riders to be competitive at this level and who would also benefit from experiencing competition at this level. The panel may select fewer riders than the maximum number permitted under UCI rules should they not meet the desired selection criteria.
The selection panel will exercise its discretion fairly and without bias in making its final decision. If a selected rider is unable to compete for any reason, substitute selections will be at the discretion of the selection panel. There is no automatic selection, nor will any performance in one event or competition be a defining factor in selecting one rider over another.

Those interested in putting their name forward need to send their application form to secretary@offroadcyclingireland.ie by close of play on Monday 14 November 2022.
