On Monday Belgian coach Rudy De Bie announced his selection for the world cup round held next Saturday in Koksijde. There are eight riders representing Belgium instead of the usual eight due to the injury to Niels Albert; the rider leading the world cup series cannot be replaced. Albert was recently released from hospital and won't be back on the bike for at least four weeks. Dieter Vanthourenhout, who replaced Erwin Vervecken in the previous round, now finds himself a reserve.
