\u201cI\u2019m really happy that everyone gave it their absolute best again,\u201d a satisfied Veenhoven said afterwards. \u201cWe were immediately in a good position from the start. We were never chasing the race and were always there whenever a group tried to get away. It was a very controlled race and we rode really well as a team.\u201d<\/p>\n
With 25 kilometers to go, the pace was particularly high. Several riders tried to split the peloton, and Imogen Wolff was also part of a group that managed to get clear for a short while. \u201cWe also tried to open up the race ourselves, but unfortunately there wasn\u2019t enough wind. Towards the end, Imogen was in the front group, which was also really good for us,\u201d Veenhoven explained.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cI\u2019m really happy that everyone gave it their absolute best again,\u201d a satisfied Veenhoven said afterwards. \u201cWe were…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":768634,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[4985,253756,101,253757,56,54,55,253758],"class_list":["post-768633","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-cycling","tag-cycling","tag-nienke-veenhoven-claimed-an-impressive-victory-in-a-travers-les-hauts-de-france-after-130-5-kilometers-between-queant-and-ecourt-saint-quentin","tag-sports","tag-the-22-year-old-dutchwoman-was-the-fastest-in-the-sprint-with-the-victory","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom","tag-veenhoven-secures-her-fifth-win-of-the-season-and-once-again-crowns-strong-teamwork-from-team-visma-lease-a-bike"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/768633","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=768633"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/768633\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/768634"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=768633"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=768633"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=768633"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
