Max Walscheid has somewhat surprisingly taken victory at Omloop van het Houtland 2024 ahead of Team Jayco AlUla teammate Dylan Groenewegen.
Heading into the final 30km, a seven man leading group had seen their advantage over the peloton cut to just over 30 seconds. At 10km to go, they still dangled tantalisingly out ahead of the peloton, but with 4.6km to go, every one of the attackers had been swallowed up by the bunch.
From there, it was always going to be a bunch sprint to decide the day and in the end, it was Max Walscheid who powered to the victory in Lichtervelde ahead of Team Jayco AlUla teammate Dylan Groenewegen.

- So he's got an attitude of egocentric proportions, typical Yorkshire guy then...

- Plus MVDP now having basically done 4 seasons in 2 years might warrant a slightly longer rest than usual, although even then his will STILL be shorter than 98% of all other pro cyclists in any field.Mistermaumau15-11-2024

- C’mon, they need this kind of gooey content in winter to stop readers switching off. Medias sowing seeds to provoke discussion and rumours that lead to a self-defined legitimacy to introduce undesired questions during rider interviews in order to boast delivery of “original” contentMistermaumau15-11-2024

- The reason you don’t see these type of websites often and certainly not in cycling might be that they die before you find them. But tell us about it when you’re done I’ll visit to check it out.Mistermaumau15-11-2024
- Someone should do this: create a cycling news site that is free with no ads. Watch the subscriptions like up. Then carefully and slowly introduce ads. I might do it myself. Sites like CUTD are poorly conceived and consequently a mess. Readers will leave as soon as there is a better alternative.Renz15-11-2024
