Elite Women’s Photo Gallery: New Year, New Kits, New Winner at GP Sven Nys in Baal

The new year kicked off as it always does with the 2019 GP Sven Nys in Baal.

The race is always a show of sorts, with riders displaying their new kits and bikes. This year was relatively quiet on the transfer front, although Crelan-Charles became Roompot-Crelan, giving Maud Kaptheijns new colors for the new year.

Sophie de Boer also debuted with the her new Pushing Dreams team.

This year's GP Sven Nys also added a new winner to the 2018/19 yearbook. Jolanda Neff (Trek Factory Racing CX) took advantage of her second-row position to start fast and ultimately beat Sanne Cant (IKO - Beobank) in the last lap to get her first-ever cyclocross win in Belgium.
