01/How the day runs
The day has two parts.
Main program
During the day, professional cyclists race the Czech cyclocross cup, possibly with riders from abroad. This is serious sport — people come to watch top performances.
Fofr Kros
Fifteen minutes after the men's race finishes, we take to the same course. No pros — instead amateurs, well-known faces and companies. It's for fun, not for points.
02/Who races
The riders aren't pros.
Nobody on the start line is a professional cyclist. They're people for whom cyclocross is a bit of fun, not a job.
