Another Cyclocross Sunday!
The Koppenbergcross delivered two very different, but equally entertaining races today.
🇳🇱 Lucinda Brand was once again the strongest in the women’s race, attacking on the fourth lap to take a convincing solo win, the fourth one in a row. 🇮🇹 Sara Casasola made a great start to her CX season with second place, ahead of 🇱🇺 Marie Schreiber.
The men’s race had a much more dramatic ending. 🇧🇪 Thibau Nys made his season debut, crashed twice and still managed to fight his way back to the front. He then beat 🇧🇪 Michael Vanthourenhout in a thrilling sprint up the Koppenberg.
The last lap was crazy. The lead kept changing hands between the two of them, corner after corner, before Nys finally pulled away on the final climb. 🇧🇪 Gerben Kuypers completed the podium.
What a day for cyclocross! A perfect autumn day for racing.
