Belgian Sven Nys defeated Canadian Geoff Kabush and compatriot Roel Paulissen on Thursday at the Belgian Grand Prix in Gooik. It was Nys' second mountain bike race of the season; his first - after a long cyclo-cross season - was this past weekend.
"I really hadn't expected this," Nys told Sporza after his victory. "I had trained well, but you don't really know what your condition is."
