3rd place.
176 starters, and 156 km of steep rolling hills.
Around 90 kilometers into the race, I went with a small group to catch the breakaway which we did shortly.
At about 30 km remaining, I went clear with 5 others, and together we stayed away. Then with 7 km to go two riders took off solo, one then the other. I mixed around with the three still with me, and got them to chase together to bring back one of the two riders. The leader stayed away, clearly stronger then the rest. I positioned myself in the field sprint, and held for 3rd place, 2nd of my group of 4.
Romsée-Stavalot-Romsée is Tuesday for me. Het Volk is next Saturday for me.
