After stage like this I wonder who decided to give Danielson more than 70 downhill skill in any kind of DB. It's not like it was the first time.

Elia Viviani wins the Dutch Food Valley Classics (formerly Veenendaal-Veenendaal). Race-director Thijs Zonneveld (yes, the former cyclist) did a lot of experiments in the race, including camera's at the bikes, smaller teams and shorter race.
So, he tried to make the race more interesting, more hills etc, but in the end, it's just an ordinary sprint... At least if Van Hummel & Napolitano are on the podium, I don't think a lot of sprinters dropped on the hills.

No
I couldn't find him
My dad has a picture from the Belkin-bus, though.
Think the race was pretty tough, but the lack of good puncheurs made the race end in a mass sprint. Was there to see it, the new "layout" with a few local laps was pretty good. Saw the riders 4 times, and the crowd was pretty big compared to last few editions.

You can even talk to them at the start, ask autographs, take pictures with them etc. etc.
