Thursday, October 15, 2009 Albert is the best yet again by Nick Mulder at 12:51 PM EST   comments Categories: Pro Cycling, Cyclocross, Race Reports and Results   Niels Albert (BKCP-Powerplus) won today’s cyclocross race in Belgium’s Ardooie. The 23 year-old world champion left the Czech Zdenek Stybar and countryman Sven Vanthourenhout in his tracks. Albert made his move with three laps to go, distancing himself from his rivals that also included Tom Meeusen, Dieter Vanthourenhout, and Klaas Vantornout. His competitors couldn’t match his accelerations as his attacks knocked each rider off his wheel, one by one. Stybar was the strongest out of the group dropping Sven Vanthourenhout in the closing lap to secure second place.       comments Follow @Pro_Cycling Tweet Subscribe via RSS or daily email Contact the editor about this article Related Articles Cyclocross World Cup: Albert goes solo in Rome victory over van der Haar Cyclocross roundup: Albert seeking to pull back World Cup points in Heusden-Zolder Albert triumphs in Scheldecross at Antwerp in BKCP sweep Superprestige Cyclocross: Niels Albert makes it a double weekend in Gieten Cyclocross World Cup: Niels Albert recaptures his World title form on the dunes of Koksijde Albert completes first half comeback to win Superprestige Hamme-Zogge Sven Nys and Niels Albert write off World Cup chances after Cauberg disasters
