October 30, 2007 – Here are the UCI Cyclocross rankings as of October 29, after two World Cups and the Canadian National Championships. Sven Nys (Bel) leads the Men’s rankings, while Canadian National Champion Mike Garrigan (Can) is top Canadian in 26th place. On the women’s side, Katie Compton (USA) is in the lead, with National Champ Wendy Simms (Can) as top Canuck in sixth spot. The Canadians are ranked relatively high up at the moment, since our National Championships were held so early. National Championships award riders with lots of UCI points, and other countries have yet to hold their championships.
