'Dale Posted April 16, 2017 Share The six chasers joined up with the leaders to make a group of 12 out front, and that looks like our break of the day, with a decent advantage over the peloton being opened up already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't wait to get it next week. Thanks for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'Dale Posted April 16, 2017 Share Awesome news ???? After 14 years, there's the return of the women's Amstel race. The women are doing 121km and for them the Cauberg will be the final climb before a short run to the line. That gets underway at 10:40 local time.

'Dale Posted April 16, 2017 Share That's a sizeable break in the men's race. Will make for interesting racing.  261 kms of the hilliest terrain around the Netherlands and its fringes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Dale Posted April 16, 2017 Share We're a shade over an hour into the race with 45km and four climbs already on the clock. The first appearance of the Cauberg is coming soon, after 55 kilometres, and shortly afterwards the riders will cross the finish line for the first time before setting out on the first of a couple of different loops.
