By David Hunter Stage 1 Terneuzen – Terneuzen 182.1km The race opens with a flat day, but beware as wind is about! There is a chance of rain, all day, and a strong crosswind for the majority of the stage. This is going to make for nervous riding as nobody wants to lose time in…
By David Hunter Stuck in the middle of the Tour de France and the Vuelta, we have the Eneco Tour. The race, held in Holland, is 7 stages long: 1 short TT(10km), 3 sprint stages and 3 horrible classics style stages. Stage 5 finishes on the Muur van Geraardsbergan. The climb made famous in the…
By David Hunter The riders head to London for the 3rd running of this race. Like the other editions, we have a challenging middle section with some short, steep climbs.

By David Hunter Stage 5 Recap We got the expected “bunch”sprint, after a very long, drag up to the finishing line. Movistar seemed to have got their tactics spot on, but when Capecchi jumped, his teammates didn’t follow. Intxausti, still managed to get in a good position and looked like he might take the win,…
By David Hunter Stage 3 Recap Sprint, as expected, and won by Hofland, as expected! Wackermann delivered the sprint I expected, in stage 1, to claim 2nd place. Easy when you’re the only sprinter in the race. Stage 4 Ogden – Powder Mountain 168.5km At last, some real action!
