The Classics

You were warned:

COVID-19 restrictions mean that there will be no wall of noise to greet the riders as they make their way up the Cauberg on Sunday with crowds banned from watching the race, but by day’s end, the riders will still have tackled a course that, statistically at least, largely meets the Dutch Classic’s required specifications: 219km, 38 hills, over 3,000 metres of climbing and more bends in the road than anyone could care to count.

My pick from the favourites: WvA to convert his promising form.

 

Slightly outside bet:Marc Hirshi to the sneak away while the favourites cover each other.

Top 10 for Ashleigh

 

 

She did the riding to enable the others to get back into contention... the attack was gone were it not for her.

And her teammate nearly pinched it on the line.

Just watched the finalé.

What a finish, beautiful racing.

Superb domestique work by Ashleigh.

 

One day when I'm big I'll have a 30 second peak power output like the mercurial Vos.

I doubt my 30 sec power matches her 1 hour...????

I'm always caught surprised when I see that large frame of Colbrelli in a breakaway.

 

What a scrappy race.
