Peter Sagan is the new world cycling. The Slovak hit his battle on the final climb of 23rd Street. Michael Matthews (Australia) dashed background to the silver. Ramūnas navardauskas from Lithuania was third. Netherlands colored and made the race. Dear countryman, Tom Dumoulin in eleventh place
Traditional breakaway
The first attack after the neutralization was directly hit. Conor Dunne (Ireland) was the instigator of an eight-man breakaway. He was home rider Ben King, Jesse Sergent (New Zealand), Ivan Stevic (Serbia), Sung Baek Park (South Korea), Andruy Khripta (Ukraine), Serghei Ţvetcov (Romania) and Carlos Alzate (Colombia). The peloton made little move to not make too big to be the lead. The Dutch team, with Jos van Emden and Pim Ligthart, took in the first round already in control of the peloton. The gap hovered around four minutes.
Hangman Work Emden
The Germans and the Poles volunteered at the front between the Orangemen, but it was Van Emden which not relinquished his spot in front of the peloton. And if he should unexpectedly solve one of the climbs, he returned not much later, back at his familiar position. 150 kilometers from the end gave the Dutch, led by Robert Gesink, a new jolt to. The gap shrank to one minute. Vooran was the first Ukrainian who had to drop out. Halfway into the race pace dropped back into the pack, leaving the lead again grew to two minutes.
Gesink and Mollema make the race hard
There were five midway riders (King, Dunne, Ţvetcov, Sergent, Alzate) in the leading group. Emdens of routine work was there after 150 kilometers, after which the Poles took over the command. This was not hard enough for some riders. Among other Bauke Mollema and Robert Gesink tore the peloton apart on Governor Street. Thirty riders broke away, with also still Lars Boom. At 95 kilometers the last escapees were also caught up. The Belgians Philippe Gilbert had it, wanted to drive, but the Germans had missed the turn and closed the gap.
New breakaway
The Belgians then the names lead. They left four pulling away with 78 kilometers to go. Taylor Phinney joined with Kanstantin Sivtsov, Jarlinson Pantano and Guillaume Boivin. The quartet took a minute, but saw Pantano early drop out. Libby Hill accelerated Sep Vanmarcke, but he got away. The leading trio meanwhile ran out and took two minutes, but the Dutch crossed a stop to it. A fall in the feeding caused a jam. Some compatriots who were in the middle of the pack, came away well. Alexander Kristoff was well stopped, but could return to the squad.
Gesink drives are empty
Under the leadership of the riders from the Low Countries the lead fell back towards the minute. The Govenor Street (three rounds before the end), the peloton broke again after an acceleration of Joaquim Rodriguez, but it ran into the soup. At two-and-a-half lap from the end it started to drizzle. Gesink took the platoon under his wing, and together with Roman Kreuziger he took back the leading group. Not much later reported the Danes and the British are in the forefront at Libby Hill. This allows the platoon became increasingly depleted.
Mollema along with group of seven
23rd Street Stannard opened the ball, but just after the summit fell silent and there Mollema took advantage of. Boonen, Kwiatkowski, Stannard, Elia Viviani, Dani Moreno and Andrey Amador joined at the Groninger. The seven took half a minute on the peloton led by Germany, Australia and America. Took on the penultimate climb of Libby Hill Boonen the head, but from the peloton connecting part. Terpstra and Dumoulin made after 23rd Street is also the crossing. Mollema made pace at the start of the final round, then Dumoulin chose the attack.
full speed toward the hills
The hesitation was too big, causing people came back. Nelson Oliveira, Rein Taaramae and Pavel Britt demolish away, but even here they kept looking at each other. Italy and Australia volunteered to head, but still jumped Tyler Farrar and again Sivtsov away. Just before Libby Hill but they were swallowed by a runaway beaten platoon full throttle up the hill zone attacked.
Sagan succeeds;
Stybar stood on the pedals Degenkolb and got his wheel. Van Avermaet was to make a small hole, but could not close it. Tersptra just tried it after the summit, but stopped when Degenkolb countered him. Sagan and Van Avermaet led the favorites on 23rd Street. The Slovak hit a hole on the Belgian and Edvald Boasson Hagen. The Noor refused to cooperate with Van Avermaet, which Sagan seemed to have free reign. Solo he came to the foot of Governor Street. The peloton was still close in the home straight, but Sagan maintained until the finish. Matthews sprinted to second place by three seconds behind
