American cyclo-cross champion Clara Honsinger (Cannondale/Cyclocrossworld) is ready to generate some fireworks in the stars-and-stripes jersey for a full cyclo-cross season in 2021-2022, especially with a trio of World Cup races this week on home soil. 

She's in Wisconsin this weekend for the UCI Cyclo-cross World Cup Waterloo, the first of 16 of these points-heavy contests, as one of the favourites for Sunday.
