Nys made it look easy in freezing conditions as he powered to the finish with time to spare, crossing the line comfortably and celebrating with raised arms.<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"elk-seasonal\" data-url=\"\" href=\"\" target=\"_blank\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-hl-processed=\"none\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"f3a18b36-c2b0-4ced-9ae4-dc2060351ff0-2\" class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\">Behind him, a chase group quickly formed and continually reshuffled throughout the race, with Laurens Sweeck (Crelan-Corendon) eventually getting clear to secure second place. Nieuwenhuis settled for third, finishing four seconds ahead of Jente Michels (Alpecin-Deceuninck Development Team).<\/p>\n<p>Best picks for you<\/p>\n<p>Last year\u2019s overall World Cup winner, Michael Vanthourenhout (Pauwels Sauzen-Altez Industriebouw), crashed hard on the tarmac with three laps to go and dropped out of the chase group to ultimately finish 17th and out of the points awarded to the top 10 riders.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\">Cameron Mason (Sven Racing) faced trouble at the start, having to put a foot down and dropping to the back of the 44-rider field. The British champion then launched an impressive comeback, steadily passing riders to finish ninth, 37 seconds behind the winner.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\">More to come&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"elk-results\" class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-url=\"\" href=\"\" target=\"_blank\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-hl-processed=\"none\"\/>Results<\/p>\n<p id=\"82c0dbb5-6257-4e29-bed7-65b5a55af2c4\">Results powered by <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/firstcycling.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" data-url=\"https:\/\/firstcycling.com\/\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-hl-processed=\"none\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"inline-link\">FirstCycling<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"newsletter-form__strapline\">The latest race content, interviews, features, reviews and expert buying guides, direct to your inbox!<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"elk-54a7b66b-43ef-4566-bfba-d721a125f209\" class=\"paywall\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-url=\"\" href=\"\" target=\"_blank\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-hl-processed=\"none\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Thibau Nys (Baloise Glowi Lions) claimed a solo victory in a dominant fashion to win the opening round&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":303693,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[569],"tags":[64,63,784,85],"class_list":{"0":"post-303692","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-cycling","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-cycling","11":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/303692","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=303692"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/303692\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/303693"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=303692"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=303692"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=303692"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
