The Cyclo-cross Trophy (Dutch: Trofee veldrijden), also known as X²O Badkamers Trophy (Dutch: X²O Badkamers Trofee), is a Belgian cyclo-cross racing series currently sponsored by X²O Badkamers (X²O Bathrooms). It is one of the three major season-long competitions in Cyclo-cross, the other two being UCI Cyclo-cross World Cup and Cyclo-cross Superprestige. Many races are held in the province of Antwerp with others being held across Belgium.
History and Name Changes
The first ever event was held on 1 November 1987 in Putte-Peulis and it was sponsored by the Flemish newspaper Gazet van Antwerpen. Between 1987-2012 the event was known as Gazet van Antwerpen Trofee. After that it changed the sponsor several times. Between 2012-2016 it was known as BPost Bank Trophy and between 2017-2019 it was known as the DVV Trophy. Since 2020 the event is known as X²O Badkamers Trophy. The Elite Women final classification is known as Soudal Ladies Trophy while the Under-23 Men classification is known as Trimetal Rookie Trophy.
In Belgium and the Netherlands the event is called Trofee veldrijden.
Classification System
In 2012–2013, the way that the general classification was calculated was changed from a points system to using the riders' finishing times of each race (like a road racing stage race) with time 'bonuses' also available at an intermediate 'sprint' at the end of the first lap with 15, 10 and 5 seconds being awarded. The maximum time a rider can lose in the general classification is 5 minutes, excluding the bonus seconds. When a rider does not finish or does not start, they are handed a 5-minute time loss, excluding bonus seconds.
