So Erik emailed today and asked if he could get us his latest Cyclocross Report and Power Ranking a bit late. The reason? He just became a daddy as Jonathan Mitchell was welcomed into the family on Sunday. Since we’re flexible, understanding people, I’m sure we have no problem granting him the time he needs.
In the meantime, please enjoy this video from the last lap of Zdenek Stybar’s win on Saturday in Koksijde, Belgium. And yes, Francis Mourey finished 5th–again.
To boot, here’s Sunday’s last lap from Sven Nijs’ 50th Superprestige victory in Gieten.
Enjoy! And congratulations to Erik and his family.
Now, about that Power Ranking…
About Whit
My experiences might easily fit many cycling fans' definitions of “living the dream.†Since getting hooked on the sport watching Lance Armstrong win the 1993 U.S. Pro Championship, I've raced as an amateur on Belgian cobbles, traveled Europe to help build a European pro team, and piloted that team from Malaysia to Mont Ventoux. As a former assistant director sportif with Mercury-Viatel, I've also seen the less dreamy side of the sport – the side rife with broken contracts, infighting, and positive dope tests. These days, I live with my lovely wife in Pennsylvania and share my experiences and views on the sport at Bicycling Magazine, the Embrocation Cycling Journal, and at my own site, Pavé.
