This weekend sees the world’s best ‘cross riders going wheel-to-wheel in the infamous sandpit of Koksijde – and British champion Nikki Harris will be among them.
Harris has enjoyed a hugely successful start to the season, with a host of podium places to her name in the UCI World Cup, alongside race wins in the Bpost Bank Trofee and Superprestige series.
Her form is all the more remarkable following the tragic death of her Telenet-Fidea team-mate Amy Dombroski, who was killed in a training crash on the eve of the season.
Harris spoke to RCUK about coming to terms with Dombroski’s death alongside her season so far, her love of ‘cross and her ambitions for 2014.
