CyclingFriday, 17 May 2024 at 18:28
On May 18th, the peloton will race a sprinter-friendly classic in the Netherlands. The Veenendaal-Veenendaal Classic, a prestigious one-day event, consistently attracts top sprinters, and this year promises to be no different. Here's a preview of the upcoming race.
The 171-kilometer long race is not one where endurance will matter much, and neither will climbing abilities. It is a day for the sprinters on a five-lap circuit around the town of Veenendaal; where there are two small hilltops that open the possibility for attacks but the rest of the route is completely flat.
Veenendaal - Veenendaal, 171.5 kilometers

*** Dylan Groenewegen, Gerben Thijssen
** Simon Dehairs, Jarne van de Paar
* Luca Mozzato, Biniam Girmay, Emils Liepins, Davide Persico, Daniel Babor, Matteo Moschetti, Itamar Einhorn

- Majka, without you, UAE would have been a complete disaster. Too much ego in this group, when it was possible, you put order and protect your baby-captain (same job you did with Tadej).maria2024202401-06-2025

- Majka was certainly an MVP for UAE! As usual. 2nd is a fantastic result for del Toro. But the manner in which he lost pink was so unimpressive. Wouldn’t work for the win but the has energy for a meaningless sprint at the finish?mobk01-06-2025
- Some very sad news. RIP Daisy.
