For episode 162 of Cyclocross Radio we are live on tape from the Rapha DC Clubhouse with US Cyclocross national Champion and Cannondale Cyclocrossworld athlete, Stephen Hyde. On the thursday evening preceding DCCX weekend, Hyde took us back to his early days of racing and the pivotal role the DC scene played in shaping his future. We also talked about the current state of US and world cyclocross and where we can go from here.
