Great to see that somebody actually cares about cyclocross in these countries, I as a Slovak cross racer kind of envy Hungarian's as you can really see that there is more interest and more heart in it (race organisers, fans, racers), sport is simply on upward trajectory, while in Slovakia you can really feel that it's just something youth clubs are doing just so the off-season isn't so long and even though we often have good quality races there's no bigger plan (just yet, maybe with U16 European champs this weekend, there is some hope).
All in all just wanted to acknowledge your nice work and appreciate level of professionalism. Keep it up!
