Azencross

The next generation of cyclocross superstars made a rather bold statement today in Loenhout, namely that the future is now. Boom, Stybar, and Albert finished together ahead of Nys, Wellens, and the rest, with Boom taking the sprint for the victory. Trebon was the best of the North Americans. He finished 21st, 3.36 behind. Get the full story over at CN.

I had a feeling the next few races would be good for Andy. And that was certainly the case today. With the top three finishers plus a handful of others in the top 20, the professor bags a whopping 450 points and the win. I think that's the highest point total so far. The decisive victory stretches his lead to almost 200 points.

Boom - 150
Stybar - 125
