How to watch a FREE UCI Cyclo-cross World Championships live stream online
The official UCI YouTube channel and on the UCI official Facebook page are both set to stream all the action for FREE, however these broadcasts are set to be geo-blocked in Australia, New Zealand, Canada and the US due to licensing agreements.
If you fancy your cycling coverage with some European flavour, FREE UCI Track World Championships coverage is also available via VRT in Belgium and Rai in Italy.
And if you’re from any of the countries listed above but you’re abroad right now, don’t worry about missing out on that free coverage – all you need to do is download a VPN to re-connect to your home streaming coverage.

How to use a VPN
Using a VPN is as easy as one-two-three…
1. Download and install a VPN – as we say, our top choice is ExpressVPN
2. Connect to the appropriate server location – open the VPN app, hit ‘choose location’ and select the appropriate location.
3. Go to the broadcaster’s stream – head to your home broadcaster’s site or app and watch as if you were at home – so that might be UCI YouTube channel, UCI official Facebook page, VRT and Rai.
