375:. Now since I am Belgium-based, I can't really gauge the importance of these races in USA and UK (I hadn't ever heard of them, shame on me), so I was wondering about the view of someone who knew better. The way I'm picturing them, you might as well add things like "De Moedige Veldrijder", so to speak. What sort of criterium is placed on adding things in that list, and wouldn't it be better to link to (possibly non-existent) wikipedia pages than acting like a "portal" of sorts to these different cyclo-cross related sites.

There's some with no wiki article at all, or some with an article of a paragraph long written a few years ago (and it shows in the text). Although I must admit that shouldn't be used as an indication of importance, I still feel it says

Hello, I came here to try and understand how the race is won! What happens when the time is up? There is no discussion about how the number of laps are counted and the winner is determined. Specifically I am confused about what happens if I have just started a new lap and the time us up, does this

The main intent of cyclo-cross genre is to prevent lung inflammation during autumn and winter races. Seated on "ram" handlebar bikes pro cyclists can maintain high enough speeds for longer periods where the wind would chill them, no matter how much Gore-Tex they wear. Cyclocross barriers and terrain

This section does not have a place in the article! It is POV and
Original Research. This is against Knowledge (XXG) policy so we must follow it! I'm sure there is room in the prose to mention how some people have a greater influence in the sport than others but a list is the wrong way to go. (I

There is no doubt that
Jonathan baker is a very good cyclo-cross racer but I don't think it is appropriate to put his name in this section. IMO, this section is really for the absolute greats, there are world champions that aren't even on the list. For those who think otherwise I would be

Don't quite understand which part of policy the external links contravened, can someone explain please? - I thought adding a link to the UK official Cross body site with calendars of events, rules, results etc might be helpful to people wanting to get started in Cross racing. Richard Law.

Does it make ANY sense at all to list
Lefevre here without specifying in what way he "played a key role"?? It just seems like some type of "name dropping" to give the genesis story of Cyclo-cross more weight without giving some specifics?

Another comment: To say "cyclocross bicycles are similar to racing bicycles" doesn't make much sense. Any bicycle used in a race is a "racing bicycle." I'd suggest replacing with "cyclocross bicycles are similar to road bicycles."

There's got to be better photos of cyclocross available. Neither of these really conveys the experience. I've frieds that have massive amounts on flicker. It seems presumptious somehow to replace existing

A few of the links are to a commercial website, or regional website that have little general knowledge about cyclo-cross. Any thoughts about possibly cleaning a few links out? Thanks.

That photo has been on this article since it first appeared on wikipedia, kind of grandfathered in? also, that team has a very long history with cyclocross (in the united states anyway).

seattle cyclocross - too location specific, if we had a link for every regional website the list would be huge. i think links should cover at least a national level.
