After getting shut out of the top podium step at the 2018 World Championships in Valkenburg-Limburg, the Dutch cyclocross program bounced back in a big way at the European Championships in Rosmalen over the weekend.

The Dutch won four of the five title races in front of home-country fans. Annemarie Worst (Steylaerts – 777) and Mathieu van der Poel (Corendon – Circus) won the Elite races, Ceylin del Carmen Alvarado (Corendon – Circus) won the U23 Women’s race and Pim Ronhaar (Callant-Doltcini Cycling Team) took the Junior Men’s title.

Only Tom Pidcock (TP Racing) broke the Dutch domination with a win in the U23 Men race.

Take a look inside the weekend’s racing with this photo gallery from Bart Hazen.
