EF Education-TIBCO-SVB announced it will provide year-round support for two-time US national cyclo-cross champion Clara Honsinger as the Women’s WorldTour team begins a cyclo-cross programme for the 2022-2023 season.

Honsinger transitioned to the road full time in 2021 with the US-based team while continuing to make an impression in ‘cross. Her cyclo-cross team, Cannondale-Cyclocrossworld, abruptly folded in March after 16 seasons. Last year, Honsinger accounted for seven of the team’s 35 podiums, including a defence of the US cyclo-cross elite women’s title and two other victories.
