Oof, it's a tough challenge for best course of the year this season! They also reflect on Sweeck's World Cup win, after 8 years of being at the sharp end of Elite races. There are yet more developments coming from Cyclopark, and Neil queries whether Vos has a technical innovation in riding with a light at Woerden. In the Laatste Ronde, they preview Koppenburgcross, acknowledging that the race would occur after the show hits the feeds - you can evaluate whether they got anything correct in the predictions... (spoiler - just watch it, folks :-) ).  They also preview the upcoming European Championships coming from Namur, that will include all categories including Masters.
