The weekend of racing at the Houffalize opens new specialty dell'XCE, racing battery (3/4 athletes) avail themselves steps 4X style but with far more locations than where pedalable ability also has the athleticism. The races last about 2/3 minutes. The track measured 530m and was characterized by a departure of asphalt where after a few hundred meters imboccava the first tear of the day that stretched the group. Then he was alone for more than a tear of 300m, so the start was crucial to win. Among men, the fastest in the qualifying round was Brian Lopes and in the final did not disappoint, beating the Austrian, as many as the favorite, Daniel Federspiel (notebooksbilliger.de) while the German Simon Gegenheimer (Ultrasports-Rose) is finished third. The final was also the Swiss Severin Disch (Thömus Racing) who finished in 4th place.
“I’m very happy,” said Lopes. “I’ve been doing a lot of sprint eliminator training for the past couple of months. I’ve been racing BMX and 4X since I was 4 years-old and it’s good to be back on the podium.” About the course he said: “It was very tough. I was really worried at first. There was a lot of climbing which was exhausting, but eventually it all turn out great.”

In the final women's race between Eva Lechner, Annie Last, and Jenny Anne Terpstra Rissveds, class of 1994! Annie Last took command immediately resisting the attacks of its opponents, especially that last corner of Eva Lechner has tried to put the English in the Last but closed the door and you are touched falling. They are readily raised and crossed the finish line in first and second position, with the young Swedish Rissveds third and Terpstra to 4 th place (fall earlier in a curve).
“It was a tough course, quite steep. I took the lead before the first climb and tried to hold on to it,” said Last after the race. “But just before the last downhill Eva tried to cut my line and crashed, pulling me down with her. Luckily, I didn’t lose my lead and I crossed the finish line first.”
