VALKENBURG, THE NETHERLANDS – Sven Nys has won today’s International Cauberg Cyclocross in Valkenburg, the Netherlands. The Belgian Champ rode for most of the race solo in the front. Only world champion Niels Albert seemed to be able to keep up with Nys, but due to bad luck, he fell out of contention with two flats. Klaas Vantornout finished second and Albert managed to complete the podium with a third place, despite his tire struggles.

Marianne Vos won the International Cauber Cyclocross race for the women. The Dutch woman won this race last year as well. Daphny van den Brand finished second while English rider Nikki Harris finished in third place. For a while it looked like Harris would lock up second place, but in the last lap she had a fierce battle with Van den Brand and lost ground to the Dutchwoman who’s wrapping up her final season.
