Giant-Alpecin’s Lars van der Haar will begin his European cyclo-cross campaign this weekend at the Superprestige in Gieten, the Netherlands.
The 24-year-old Dutchman began his cyclo-cross season earlier this month at CrossVegas, the first race of the World Cup series and the first-ever World Cup in the US. He ended his road season the previous week at the Tour of Alberta.
“I hope to take another step forward in my development as a CX rider this season,” said van der Haar, who finished just off the podium in Las Vegas behind Wout Van Aert (Vastgoedservice-Golden Palace), Sven Nys and Michael Vanthourenhout (Sunweb-Napoleon Games).

Van der Haar said he will once again target the World Cups and Superprestige races.
“On top of that I will be aiming to reach top form at the World Championships in Zolder, Belgium, and to go for a good result there.”
Van der Haar was the U23 World Champion in 2011 and 2012 and finished third in the elite men’s race last season
