Andrew's 2020 CX Worlds Campaign
Donation protected
After last years amazing cyclocross season, which concluded with a trip to Europe and racing in the CX World Championships, I came into this season with some pretty lofty goals. Everything I’ve done from last summer to this point has been focused on one thing, returning to the World Championships. I figured with that goal in mind, other good things would happen along the way. It’s taken a tremendous amount of hard work, perseverance and support from family, teammates, friends, and the cycling community to position me for the level of success I’ve experienced so far. So I’m happy to report that based on my performance throughout the season, culminating with my win at the Pan American Championships, I’ve again been selected to represent the U.S. at the CX World Championships in Dubendorf, Switzerland.
While this is an amazing opportunity on it’s own, this year I’ll also have the opportunity to spend most of December through CX Worlds in February racing and training in Europe. Last year I missed out on the December block of racing and some of my favorite races which include the Namur and Zolder World Cups. But this year, a few days after I return from CX Nationals I’ll depart for Belgium with the rest of my team to race the Kerstperiode between Christmas and New Years, which includes Namur, Zolder and several other local C 1/2 CX races. If that wasn’t cool enough, after 2 weeks of racing in Belgium I’ll be headed down to Malaga, Spain to train in some nice weather for 2 weeks, which I am really excited about. Then from Spain I’ll be flying back up to race two more World Cups in France and the Netherlands and then on to the World Championships in Dubendorf Switzerland.
Over the course of 7 weeks I’ll travel to 5 European countries, race in numeros C1 races, 4 World Cups, and CX Worlds. That brings me to the point of this campaign. This campaign is to raise money to offset some of the costs that I’ll incur racing, training, traveling and transporting all my race equipment to Europe.
This is going to be an amazing experience and I just hope it isn’t all a blur. For the benefit of all those following at home, feel free to give me a follow me on [email redacted]ohmeyer where I plan to capture and share my trip and experiences as I race and travel across Europe. Again, I’d like to thank my family, teammates, friends and the cycling community and greatly appreciate your support.
