Argos lead with Dumoulin and Geschke for Amstel
Wild heads team for women's race
The 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Argos Shimano team is heading into Amstel Gold without a pre-race favourite but will count on 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Tom Dumoulin and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Simon Geschke to p🌄rovide results. Amstel is the most significant one-day race on the Dutch calendar, famous for its exciting finishes on the Cauberg and the partisan fans who paඣck the climb.
Although the race has ꧑undergone minor alterations, with the finish now replicating the one used for the road races at last year’s world championships, much of the route remains the same with 33 climbs and 🤪the Cauberg still the most decisive sector in the race.
A🌞rg🉐os will line up with Dumoulin and Geschke as their protected riders. Both finished mid-pack last year but will be given orders to animate the race. Roy Curvers will act as team captain.
“We are happy to have Tom Dumoulin returning to the team after his crash in De Panne,” said sports manager Addy Engels. “The wound on his knee recov𒆙ered well, and he has been able to do some good training in recent days.
“Also in the Amstel Gold Race we will count on Geschke again, and we have a team of opportunists and attackers who will be given a free hand to pursue their chances. 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Roy Curvers will play an iᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚmportant role as the captain of the team. With his knowledge of the hills he is of great value.”

While the men will compete in a 251-kilometre race, the women’s professional𓆏 peloton will race the the Ronde van Gelderland, covering a distance of 140 kilometres on the same day. Argos&rsquo༺; squad for the women's race includes the 2010 winner Kirsten Wild, who won Gent-Wevelgem this spring as well as four straight stages at the Energiewacht Tour.
