Of course, our Belgian team riders were in transit too. Here's a short report…

Beneluxcup XC Malmedy on 07/08/2007 Cross country race on a very technically challenging track. There were a lot of rooty trails and steep downhill passages. After a bad start, I got into my rhythm and fought my way up throughout the laps. Result: 11th place.

Belgian Championship Ottignies XC 07/21/2007 We took part in the Belgian Championship XC. It was a very beautiful, technical and sunny ride. I'm glad I participated, but the outcome wasn't that great. I wanted to end up in the top 20, but came in 24th. Sven Nys, 2, was the winner and Filip Meirhaege, 3, came in second… tough competition.

Raid des Hautes Fagnes Malmedy on 06/17/2007 On Sunday, June 17th I rode in the Raid des Hautes Fagnes Marathon in Malmedy.
It was very wet and muddy, but that made the track more difficult and more fun. 15th place.
