As Lemmen neared a first ever pro victory, the Dutchman's legs looked as if they were starting to tie up and at 10km to go, his advantage had closed again to just 17 seconds. Inside the final kilometre, Lemmen was finally caught by the chasers and from there, it was a 7-man fight for the line. In the end, it was Stan van Tricht who powered to glory ahead of
Alex Baudin and Roger Adria.
