A hilly course for the Latvian Championship, Evonik and Zalgiris have the most riders but Tinkoff have the favorite in Skujins, he last this title all the way back in 2012.
Neilands puts an end to the break at the top of the penultimate climb. Skujins and Blums on his wheel. 11k to go.
11 pros and 1 amateur get a gap off the descent. Rubenis trying to bridge up, Belohvosciks, Belevics, Dakteris, and Ansons are the other pros missing.
The amateur rider is dropped and the 11 left tackled the final climb together. Rubenis, Belohvosciks and Belevics still a little off the back. Under the 1k banner it is a wall of Evonik riders with Skujins attacking through the middle.
600 meters, it is Skujins ahead of Gavars and Blums. Eislers next.
300 meters, none of the Evonik riders seem to have the required punch. It is Skujins ahead of Eislers and Budenieks.
Skujins wins the national title, Budenieks 2nd, and Gavars recovers to grab 3rd.
