Winning the Cadel Evens in Australia and the Stage and GC at Yuelta a San Juan. Now San Juan GC was a given on an easy last stage, a strong Dec Q-S team and Remco Evenepoel, while being young, is a strong and level headed rider. Still, nice touch to see Zdenek Stybar put a cap on the day.
Now the Cadel Evans race? D Q-S gets one rider (Dries Devenyns) into a 17 man break with 5 Mitchelton-Scott riders and pulls it off! Nice!
Coming into the season of the crocuses and Belgians (and their female counterparts, the Dutch; 1-3 in Elite Womens’ CX, 1-2 in Womens’ Junior. didn’t look at the Under 23s).
We may have global warming to end life as we know it but at least the cycling world is in good order.
