Puck Pieterse (Alpecin-Deceuninck), winner of the last World Cup, a true mudder in Overijse, once again took fans along for a practice lap of the tricky, muddy course, and showed that she has the skills to be a favorite at the 2022 UCI Cyclocross World Cup in Hulst.

Pieterse once again put her practice laps on a muddy course to good use, navigating the tricky, hilly Hulst course the best.

She battled with World Cup leader Fem Van Empel (Pauwels Sauzen – Bingoal) but stayed upright the most and took advantage of a Van Empel crash and her crash-mode derailleur to secure an insurmountable lead.
