Set among the coastal dunes, Koksijde is a pure test of power, balance, and sand-riding skill, often producing decisive gaps even among the strongest riders in the field.<\/p>\n<p>Live coverage is available across the UK, Europe, North America, and selected regions worldwide, with the usual World Cup broadcast arrangements in place.<\/p>\n<p>Key information<\/p>\n<p>Event: UCI Cyclocross World Cup Koksijde<\/p>\n<p>Date: Sunday 21 December 2025<\/p>\n<p>Location: Koksijde, Belgium<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" data-od-added-loading=\"\" data-od-removed-fetchpriority=\"high\" data-od-replaced- data-od-xpath=\"\/HTML\/BODY\/DIV[@id='td-outer-wrap']\/*[2][self::DIV]\/*[2][self::SECTION]\/*[1][self::DIV]\/*[1][self::DIV]\/*[1][self::DIV]\/*[2][self::DIV]\/*[1][self::DIV]\/*[5][self::DIV]\/*[1][self::FIGURE]\/*[1][self::SPAN]\/*[1][self::IMG]\" data-dominant-color=\"8b7c6d\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #8b7c6d;\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" data-lazy- src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=\" http:=\"\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-33424249397 with-source not-transparent\" data-lazy- data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/procyclinguk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/How-to-watch-Cyclocross-World-Cup-Koksijde-Live-streams-TV-channels-for-battle-in-the-sand-1.avif\"\/>Photo Credit:  Getty<\/p>\n<p>What is at stake at the UCI Cyclocross World Cup Koksijde?<\/p>\n<p>Koksijde has a habit of reshaping the World Cup picture. The sand is deep, the effort is constant, and the race rarely settles into a rhythm. Riders who can float across the dunes and hold momentum through long sand sections tend to rise quickly to the top, while even small mistakes can become costly because it is difficult to regain speed once you bog down.<\/p>\n<p>In the men\u2019s race, Mathieu van der Poel arrives as the central reference point. With Thibau Nys and Wout van Aert not starting, the usual head-to-head narrative disappears, but the course still asks a clear question: who can get closest to the sport\u2019s most complete sand rider when the pace becomes relentless. Behind him, the race becomes a fight for the podium and for valuable points as the festive block accelerates.<\/p>\n<p>The women\u2019s race is more open. Lucinda Brand has been the most reliable performer across varying terrain, while a cluster of riders arrive with the form and skillset to turn Koksijde into an opportunity rather than a survival test. The dunes reward calm decision-making, and this is often where the strongest technical riders can convert consistency into a result.<\/p>\n<p>How can you watch the UCI Cyclocross World Cup Koksijde in the UK?<\/p>\n<p>Viewers in the UK can watch the UCI Cyclocross World Cup Koksijde live via Warner Bros.
