Yeah, that was a fun stage, you have to hand it to Pedersen - he’s never boring! I can’t wait to see him in the Vuelta, he will go for the points jersey and in this shape he is likely to win a couple of stages too.
I am pretty sure he’ll go on to do the European Championships as well, actually, he’s been talking about the TT in his podcast (Lang Distance) saying it’s his best shot of an international TT title ever.

Yeah. The main issue I see is that many riders don’t wanna go to the World Championship this year, so more of them will wish to take part in the European Championship than in other years.
Otherwise, the European Championship this year will be pretty much like the Spring classics “Boucles Drôme-Ardèche”, the mass start being like the Ardèche race, and the TT like a small bit of the Drôme race.
The TT is short (again, this same problem of willing the women to ride the same length as the men, which ends up with everyone riding only a short distance).
It looks like they don’t climb the whole Allex wall like thy do on the Drôme classic; if they did it should be as high as the final wall. They made it easier for TT bikes, I guess.
And here is the mass start race:
The 2 climbs are the same as on the Drôme classic, just repeated more often.
