Not to be missed amid all the excitement surrounding the local race scene was the conclusion to the cyclocross season over in the land of frites & mayo and yeasty beer. The Superprestige and GvA series both wrapped up this weekend. And Niels Albert won both races. It'll be fun to watch him battle it out next year with Boom.
Over in the CX Pool, the only question remaining concerning the overall prize is how much Andy would win by. He wins it by over 1030 points! That's more points than Laura and Swatty had for the entire season. There was, however, a change in the race for 2nd place. Despite Nys fading down the stretch, Albert's late-season supremacy was enough for Vic to leap over me on the last race of the season to occupy the 2nd step of the podium. Nicely done boys.

hahaha! 30 points Hal, so close and yet so far. 8th place has never tasted so sweet.
you bastard
Fear not Alberto...its not as though he whipped you by 200+ points...like I whipped Laura! Whooooooo!!! 13th place never tasted so sweet!
p.s. Altona race...possibly the awesomest ever. Don't miss.
Swatty, I have a feeling that things are coming together for you . . . just in time for the Spring Classics Pool. A hint: you might want to consider avoiding the all French team this time around. If you want to stick with the nationalist theme Belgians and Italians makes more sense, maybe sprinkeled with a few Spaniards for good measure.
Can't wait for the Tour of Altona. But I have to say I'm a little nervous about the basketball game after the Devils' last two disastrous outings. Sheesh.
