Boom considering a cyclo-cross comeback
After reports that Zdenek Stybar may race cyclo-cross this winter, it seems that Dutchman Lars Boom may also return to off-road racing.
Boom is a multiple national champion and won the 2008 world title ahead of Stybar and Sven Nys. He has focused on road racing in recent years and will again be part of the Astana team in 2016. However, his manager has revealed Boom has bought 40 cyclo-cross tyres after returning from his honeymoon.

“I’m keen to take part in some races,” Boom confirmed to Het Laatste Nieuws. “I like to train off road in the winter and I’ve bought some cross tubs, so I can’t lie. I’d like to do some races that fit in with my programme. Of course I’ll have to ask Astana permission first but I don’t think they’ll be against me doing some races.
