After a successful start to his cyclo-cross campaign, the racing continues for Lars van der Haar in November as he looks to defend his World Cup lead.

The month gets underway with the second event in the Bpost series, the well-known Koppenbergcross in Belgium. This is followed the next day by the Superprestige race in Zonhoven.

The Supersprestige action continues the following weekends in Ruddervoorde and then Gavere Asper before the second World Cup series race on 22 November in Koksijde, Belgium. Van der Haar will head into the race wearing the white jersey of World Cup leader, a jersey he won last season. This race is followed by Superprestige Spa-Francorchamps on 23 November.

The final weekend of the month is another double-header with the third World Cup race, in Milton Keynes, England. A quick return to mainland Europe follows for the Bpost race in Hamme, Flandriencross.
