Final day! (Or if you happen to dwell within the PNW, the night earlier than the final day!)
Principally the identical startlist that was within the Tour of Chongming Island. However this race has a nasty twist, or ought to I say wall:
Sorry for the small picture. However that little hill, known as Qingxiushan, is 1.4km @ 11.9% and the final one tops out at 5.9km to go so that may make for an fascinating end.
Good dash, good energy climb, what else do ya want?
What you missed: Lenny Van Eetvelt took management of the race along with his win yesterday and leads the GC battles by 5 seconds over Oscar Onley. Which he ought to maintain since at the moment’s stage is flat and sprinty. The sprinters have been principally Ethan Vernon, and Max Kanter however who is aware of at the moment what with the this stage being the final race of the yr for these guys.
I like the thought of Lenny successful the primary stage race of the VDS season and now the final.
I dunno, why not Max?
However do your self a favor: if you’re watching this race, watch the Japan Cup as a substitute. It is going to be much more enjoyable. At all times is.
