Puck Pieterse makes her season-debut on the cyclocross field this weekend in Namur, and the Dutchwoman has her eyes firmly fixed on securing a first cyclocross rainbow jersey of her decorated career in seven weeks’ time.
Talking to Wielerflits, the Fenix-Deceunick rider also confirmed the outline of her multi-disciplinary 2026 season, which will look similar to this year with another tilt at the Spring Classics, before getting into the XCO mountain bike season. The Tour de France Femmes is also on her schedule before finishing off with another tilt at the XCO world championships, a title she won in 2024, but faltered to 6th place on her defence in Crans-Montana in October.
