Sugar Land, Texas, turned up the heat this weekend at the second consecutive Velosolutions UCI Pump Track World Championships Qualifier — and the action didn’t disappoint! With the Crown Festival Park track dialed and around 600 spectators packing the venue, it was clear from the first timed runs that this one was going to be fast.
The weekend was packed with Youth Challenge energy on Saturday, but it was the Elite battles on Sunday that stole the show — and the storylines were huge. Three former UCI World Champions lined up, all hungry for a ticket back to the Final.
In the Elite Men’s division, it was a clash of titans between Tommy Zula and local hero Alec Bob.
