After 16 years, America’s most successful cyclocross team calls it quits
Cannondale-Cyclocrossworld.com will not return come autumn


In a social media post, the Cannondale-Cyclocrossworld.com team announced today that it will not be returning this autumn.
Over the past 16 years, the program has produced and supported America’s most successful cyclocrossers, including Stephen Hyde, Tim Johnson, Clara Honsinger, Ryan Trebon, Jamey Driscoll, Kaitlin Antonneau, and siblings Emma and Curtis White. Under the careful management of Stu Thorne, Cannondale-Cyclocrossworld.com has at least 20 national championships and two Pan-Am championships, stood on UCI World Cup podiums, and vied for the rainbow jersey as world championships.
The team was also Cannondale’s longest-running sponsored program, as Thorne's outfit never changed its bike sponsor.
“Unfortunately, all journeys must come to an end. Today, we're sharing the difficult news that the Cannondale-Cyclocrossworld.com team will not return next season. While it's a hard decision, we know the time is right,” the statement reads.
Sponsors and fans received a worthy thanks in the statement but while a ‘next chapter’ is alluded to, no mention is made behind the reasoning of the discontinuation or what the future will hold for current rostered riders like national champion Clara Honsinger, Curtis White and Katie Clouse.
