Telenet Superprestige - Jaarmarktcross

The Jaarmarktcross in Niel, on the Rupel south of Antwerp, is traditionally raced on 11 November, Armistice Day and a public holiday in Belgium. It joined the Telenet Superprestige in 2020 and is the third round of this season's series, following Overijse and Middelkerke. The course is compact and varied, mixing heavy sand and mud with short climbs and a washboard section, so riders change rhythm constantly through each lap. It is the first of three races in five days for many of the Belgian-based riders.
