It appears Toon Aerts (Telenet Baloise Lions) is on a winning streak. This might just be his year.

While cyclocross superstars Wout van Aert and Mathieu van der Poel were contesting the one-day road race Gent-Wevelgem, the rest of the top stars were in the Dutch city of Gieten for the start of the Telenet Superprestige series.

Toon Aerts may have emerged victorious Superprestige Gieten, but the victory was not easy. The Belgian suffered some minor stumbles along the way, but was at the front when it mattered.

If the podium looks familiar, that’s because it’s almost the same as the one we witnessed a week ago at Polderscross Kruibeke.

Second place went to Laurens Sweeck (Pauwels Sauzen–Bingoal) and third went to teammate Eli Iserbyt.

While the Dutch are dominating on the women’s side of things, the Belgians are proving to be just as strong on the men’s side, with 7 out of the top 10 contenders hailing from Belgium.
