Nys explains his cyclo-cross domination

Cyclo-cross star Sven Nys (Landbouwkrediet-Euphony) is riding a two-year long final farewell tour, but it turns out he isn't experiencing it as an easy stroll to retirement. The 36-year-old Belgian champion has racked up no less than nine wins so far this season, the largest part of them in the most important races. He has four out of four wins in the Superprestige series and two out of three wins in the Bpost Bank Trophy series. His latest two came back-to-back in a single weekend.
