We have witnessed quite bizarre final of the race at today's
Grand Prix de Denain. The last two escapees seemed destined to be caught by strong group of favourites that included
Arnaud De Lie, until the cycling gods turned the tide of events as the race approached final cobbled sector. The
Lotto Dstny rider, coming off difficult Paris-Nice, seemed to be back on the right track to his best self.
The bad luck just keeps piling up for Arnaud De Lie. The Lotto Dstny rider left Paris-Nice last week after just three days and decided to forfeit Milan-Sanremo. "A difficult, but the right choice. If I go to Italy to ride 300 kilometers while I'm not fit, I know I won't be able to do anything there," he explained the decision to HLN.
