The 2021 Rochester Cyclocross Day 1 took place this Saturday on September 25 in Rochester, NY. It’s the first weekend of a four-weekend USCX series.
Forgot about U.S. UCI cyclocross racing during the pandemic? We feel a bit foggy too. Let’s refresh our memory. Rochester Cyclocross has been taking place ever since 2016 with Jeremy Powers and Katie Keogh (Antonneau) winning the very first Rochester Cyclocross.
Unfortunately with Covid-19 hitting the world in 2020, Rochester Cyclocross had been canceled. A quick recap since 2019 was so long, the winner of Elite Men for Day 1 was Vincent Baestaens and for Day 2 was Curtis White. The winner of Elite Women for both Day 1 and 2 was Maghalie Rochette.
Now that everyone has been refreshed, it’s time we got into the results. While today’s winners were different than last weekend’s Go Cross, they’re not that much different than 2019 Rochester Cyclocross Day 1. Baestaens defending his 2019 victory, and Rochette continues to be dominant in Rochester.
Katherine Sarkisov continued her winning ways after her winning both days of the UCI Junior Women at the 2021 GO Cross, while AJ August took the UCI Junior Men’s race.
