Not really. It's in the Limburg region of the Netherlands, so it's hardly running over the Andes, but there are couple of lumps. All course details here

never call a Limberger 'dutch' - they will be offended ! nice area with exquisite cheeses
the city of Maastricht is beautiful and well worth a visit/ weekend break

Wasn't it just, Froome was out on his booty the last two stages, not that surprising given the efforts he has put in over the year which i think are taking its toll on him. 23-24% gradients are killer never mind after a long day in the saddle, I've done a few cols in the alps when touring but nothing anywhere near as savage as that..Hardknott pass is a b'std though

Bit off topic, but chapeau to Alex Zanardi for his Paralympic gold in the hand-cycling. A living example of life being what you make it and a perfect role model for anyone, amputee or otherwise.

Hell yes.
In a bit of a malaise with the Vuleta now the top three are unrepentant clenbuterol cheat, unrepentant EPO cheat and Rodriguez a mile further back.
Only one winner now surely? Can't see J-Rod or Valverde coming back now. It was free to attend the paralympic races at Brands Hatch, shame there was not much in the way of advertising for it otherwise I might well have gone if I'd known I've got these bad boys winging their way to my door, 38mm Gigantex Carbon/FRM Carbon hubs, that'll shave a few seconds off my 10 & 25..flmao
