Differdange - Profel-Bofrost: 3-0
The 25th edition of the newly named Grand-prix OST-Manufaktur was a nice little success. If the choice of May 1st as date wasn't a good one regarding the number of riders because many teams already had commitments elsewhere, it was definitely a hit in terms of weather. A fine sunny day after lots of rain in recent weeks that deserved to be outside and watch the cyclists. The handful of spectators present in Bech saw an exciting race with suspense up to the end and a battle between the two strongest teams of the day, Differdange and PROFEL-Bofrost. In the end, the advantage was for the home team who, for the third time in a row, presented the winner in the person of the former Swedish champion Christer Jonas Ljungblad.

Belgians at home in Echternach.
Once again, the La Charly Gaul cyclo-sport race has known a nice succes in 2012 and for the third time in four years, the barrier of 1000 participants has been passed. The event was held without major problems and it were the Belgians who dominated the races with wins for Jérôme Giaux, Steve Decloux and Catherine Delfosse respectively in the categories A men, B men and B women, while Ingrid Haast from the Netherlands completed the palmares of the 23rd edition of La Charly Gaul with a victory in the women's race on the long distance.

Indian summer
There was a summer feeling in the air on Octobre 21 in Contern with temperatures well above 20 degrees and T-Shirts, skirts and shorts being more appropriate than the usual winter coats and mud boots. It was too hot for a cyclo-cross thus, but two men were handling well with these extreme conditions: with defending champion Joeri Adams and Sven Vanthourenhout being absent for illness, it was Jim Aernouts and Jan Denuwelaere who dominated the race until the end and after a last lap full of suspense, Jim Aernouts took the win in front of rather few cyclo-cross fans.
