The final Tour of Beijing closed the 2014 road season. Philippe Gilbert took the overall win, with Tyler Farrar taking his first WorldTour win in a long time and Dan Martin continuing to show his excellent end-of-season form.

It's October, so that can only mean one thing... Cyclo cross is here! Sven Nys (who else) dominated the recent Bpost Bank Trofee in Ronse, but watch out for Mathieu van der Poel - half Nys' age and already keeping up.

Last week Simon got to try a set of automatic gears. Yes, that's right, automatic bike gears. Is this the future? Check out the video and let us know: http://gcn.eu/1qnQ91D
