Niels Albert won the latest superprestige CX round in Hamme-Zogge, Belgium, bringing him to within 3 points of Sven Nys in the overall standings. In the women's race, Britain's
Nikki Harris took the win.

The 2015 Tour de France is to start in Utrecht, Holland. This will be the sixth time in nine years that the race will have started abroad, and the first time since 2010 that it has started in the Netherlands.

GCN's Strava club is going from strength to strength, and our member of the week is Eamonn Dougherty - send us an email and we'll get a bottle in the post to you! Likewise on Facebook, our café stop of the week is getting bigger and bigger with this week's winner being Jonathan Wei. There's also an honorable mention for Nick Ball with the worst mug ever!

Mavic's Cosmic Carbone 40c wheels make our tech of the week this week, and we'll be testing how braking using carbon rims is differnet to using aluminium. Keep your eyes out for that video in the next few weeks.

There's loads of great content coming up on the channel, so don't forget to subscribe, and join us on our Strava Club, Google+, Facebook and Twitter.
