The Ethias Cross is a season-long cyclo-cross competition, formerly known as the Brico Cross, consisting of 8 rounds throughout the season in Belgium and the Netherlands. It is one of four season-long competitions, alongside the UCI Cyclo-cross World Cup, Cyclo-cross Superprestige and the DVV Trophy (formerly known as the BPost Bank Trophy and before that as the Gazet van Antwerpen trophy). In contrary to the other competitions, the Ethias Cross does not award points or compose an overall ranking but rather consists of separate races.
