G. P. Prague Cyclocross, Cat 1

Czechoslovakia October 28, 1999


Report:

Nice Nijs!

Belgian Sven Nijs has certainly started the cyclo cross season in style. In the Prague Grand Prix he was 17 seconds ahead of a trio containing his compatriot Erik Vervecken, who took second place in front of local Simunek and veteran Dutchman Adri van der Poel. Italian Daniele Pontoni has returned from his American tour, but lost more than a minute. Jet lag?
