On top of the CX Worlds with Maghalie Rochette

Watch the latest film in our Keep Riding series. [Rapha]( [MAGHALIE ROCHETTE] KEEP RIDING MAGHALIE ROCHETTE In her twenty years on the bike, Maghalie has learnt a lot about training and racing. But there are a few things she needs to unlearn too, particularly around her menstrual health. Working with her body, rather than against it, she tells us how she’s learning to harness the power of her period. [WATCH NOW]( FEVER TALK CYCLING & THE CYCLE Sitting down with both health experts and elite racers, Maghalie’s latest podcast series looks to dispel misconceptions around menstruation for athletes. Opening up the conversation around performance and periods, the ‘Menstrual Health Series’ on Fever Talk can be found on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. [LISTEN NOW]( FIXED FOR FAYETTEVILLE The last time the CX Worlds were held in North America, Maghalie was just getting into the sport. Ten years, several podiums and one World Cup win later, the race has finally returned and Maghalie is all set to go for glory: “I’ve dreamed about and prepared for this race for such a long time. Now that it’s here, I feel ready, excited, and privileged to have this opportunity to see what I’m capable of. For the last few days, I’ve been reminiscing about the obstacles we’ve faced and overcome, the breakthroughs, the heartbreaks, and what I’ve learned from them. Now the fun begins. I can’t wait to race and to give my absolute best.” [MEET MAGHALIE]( BUILDING FUTURES USA Cycling's CX program MudFund was among the first to receive support from the Rapha Foundation. Thanks to the partnership, 14 aspiring athletes spent this winter training and racing in Europe. The trip laid the groundwork for many of them to take part in this weekend’s CX Worlds, including US rider Gage Hecht: “I have been part of USA Cycling’s development system since I was 15 and these racing trips have always been an amazing opportunity for growth as a bike racer. The cross program has gone through a lot of changes, and it’s definitely going in the right direction.”  GOOD LUCK As well as Maghalie, we are proud to support many other riders at the CX Worlds this weekend. From the elite categories right down through the age group races, we wish everyone taking part in Fayetteville the best of luck.
