Nash wins again in Las Vegas
Czech rider scores her fourth CrossVegas win and takes the early World Cup lead


























































Katerina Nash and her Luna Pro teammates had the UCI World Cup CrossVegas in a stranglehold Wednesday night in Nevada, putting Nash and Catherine Pendrel in the lead group of four before Nash set out on her own to take the win and the first World Cup leader’s jersey.
“I’ve been racing here a lot, and practice makes perfect,” said Nash, who has won the race four times now. “I think I only won because I’ve raced here the most.”
