The best and biggest race in the Netherlands will take place on April 14th 2024. It's also called the innofficial 6th monument, starts in Maastricht, goes through the beautiful hilly countryside of South-Limburg and ends in Valkenburg. The course isn't published yet, but according to rumors it will be similar to last year's course with about 256 km and 3200 meters of elevation and the finishline behind the top of the Cauberg. Last year's edition was won by Tadej Pogacar. Runner-up was ben Healy.
If you have any questions regarding the quite complicated course or the roads, feel free to ask. (A lot of my outside training takes place on these roads, so I know them pretty well to say at least.)

@traders Would anyone be interested in Volta Limburg Classic happening this Saturday in the most beautiful parts of the Netherlands (and Flanders ;))? I would create a market if there is at least some delight.
It's a bit like a smaller version of the Amstel Gold Race (and pretty niché), with some of its hills included. Some quality riders like Kaden Groves, Hugo Hofstetter, Milan Menten etc. have been announced. Discovery+ will be hosting a livestream.
@Eliza lol, I can't believe you watched it ❤️. I completely forgot about it and just googled the results. 😂
