After the cobbled specialists duked it out over an exꦅciting month of racing, the climbers now have their shot at glory at thওe Ardennes Classics.

We got a taste of what is to come with Brabantse Pijl on Wednesday, where several of the Ardennes favourites tested their legs on the roads of Belgium. Things will really get going this Sunday with the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Amstel Gold Race, the b🍷iggest one-day race on the Dutch cycling calendar. Michal Kwiatkowski 🏅is the defending champion at Amstel and will be racing for his new team Sky.

Fleche Wallonne is next up before the s🍸howpiece event Liege-Bastogne-Liege. Alejandro Valverde (Movistar) took out both races in 2015 as well as taking second at Amstel Gold. He won’t be⛎ at Amstel this year but is a big favourite for the two Belgian races.

As well as Valverde, former Liege-Bastogne-Liege champio♌ns Dan Martin (Etixx-QuickStep), Philippe Gilbert (BMC) and Simon Gerrans (Orica-GreenEdge) are expected to line up for the monument.
