We've done pretty good for cycling this year all things considered.

European cross champs this weekend.

Senior women's race has just for finished. A clean sweep by the Dutch team with Ceylin del Carmen Alvarado taking a hard fought win. Alvarado is a superstar in the making.

Sadly. Denise Betsema finished 4th.

Wout van Aert back in action today in CX.

(Edit: 3rd behind Iserbyt and van der Haar.

Edit 2: the podium prize was a massive rubber duck)

More CX coming up this afternoon. Pidcock back in action

Edit: Pidcock a bit off the pace - 17th. WvA with a second 3rd place for the weekend.

Iserbyt second today, but clearly the form rider. He might even be smaller than Pidcock!

Pity the weather was so good!

The CX paradox - great for the riders, rubbish as a spectacle!

Did they have spectators? UK local CX is back on this weekend, but no spectators allowed.

CX in Belgium today. Evie Richards and MvdP back in action.

Edit: Richards 15th. Anna Kay 6th.

Oei. Half way through the first lap and only Iserbyt can stay with MvdP.

Edit: that didnt last long. MvdP on his own after one lap. Pidcock going well.

MVDP said he was coming in fitter this year than his late start last ...

Oops, MVDp has tumbled!

MvdP just headbutted a pole, but still in front!
