Matt Shriver gets word he's made the cyclocross world championship elite men's team.
Matt Shriver (Jittery Joe's) learned Monday that he has been named to the U.S. men's team for the UCI Cyclocross World Championships later this month.
Shriver will join Kona's Ryan Trebon on the team. Trebon is the only automatic member of the the team, by virtue of his winning the national championship and leading the USA Cycling national cyclocross calendar.
Jonathan Page (Planet Bike) is another likely team member, although his status is uncertain because of a missed doping test in November.
Jeremy Powers (Cyclocrossworld.com-Cannondale) also is expected to be named to the team.
Shriver is training in San Diego, riding the road with teammate Neil Shirley. He will head back to Europe January 21 and race two UCI Category 2 races before the world championships.
