Bicycle racing competition 2013–2014 UCI Cyclo-cross World Cup 20 October 2013 – 26 January 2014 Europe 7 Lars van der Haar Netherlands Katie Compton United States 2012–2013 2014-2015 The 2013–2014 UCI Cyclo-cross World Cup events and season-long competition took place between 20 October 2013 and 26 January 2014, sponsored by the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI). The men's competition was won by the Dutchman Lars van der Haar, who also won three of the seven races. World Champion Sven Nys was quickly out of competition for the general classification after having several mechanical problems in the first race, resulting in him giving up, and a total off-day in the second race where he only finished 22nd. Previous World Cup winner Niels Albert, of Belgium, won two races, but still finished only third in the general after his German teammate Philipp Walsleben; Walsleben did not win any of the races, but consistently ranked highly, grabbing four podium spots. Katie Compton of the United States dominated the women's competition, winning five of the seven races. The remaining two were won by World Champion Marianne Vos who had undergone a cyst removal operation in November making her miss the races in Koksijde and Namur.Operatie Marianne Vos succesvol http://nos.nl/artikel/570845-operatie-marianne-vos-succesvol.html NOS 27 January 2014 Dutch 4 November 2013 Events In comparison to last season's eight races, this season only had seven.
