Today we celebrate everyone on two wheels!
Just like at the 2026 Cyclo-cross World Championships: itโs all about enjoying the ride.

In Hulst, you donโt just ride through mud and grass, you ride through history.
This fortified town, with its iconic star-shaped ramparts and old canals, stood ready for centuries against invaders. In 2026, during the World Cyclo-cross Championships, those ramparts will become the battleground for a different kind of hero: cyclocrossers.
Every turn, every climb, every slippery patch tells a story of struggle and perseverance.

Only 22 years old, but a star in cyclo-cross. Fem van Empel mixes explosive power with smooth technique, always stays calm and focused.
Since joining Team Visma | Lease a Bike, sheโs been flying across the course like a force of nature: fast, agile, and totally in control. Whether itโs steep hills, running sections, or jumping off the bike, it all seems to come naturally to her.
Will we see her at the 2026 World Championships next year? If sheโs back and feeling good, she could be a top favorite. One thingโs for sure: when Fem is on the start line, everyoneโs watching. ๐
