Race Director Brook Watts commented, "We couldn't be happier with this announcement. FloSports is the logical partner, and unequivocally the best suited as they continuously raise the bar in quality streaming cyclocross race offerings.

Ryan Fenton, Director of Global Rights Acquisition at FloSports said, "Including the 2022 Cyclocross World Championships in our FloBikes programming was a company priority. Our US subscribers made it clear that this event, held in the United States for the first time since 2013, was important to them. It's also a natural step for FloSports as we continue to look for ways to invest in and promote the sport domestically in the United States. We are proud to partner with Brook and his team to bring this race to our platform."
