Some 1,500 participants were at the start on the Brink in Roden this morning at 08:00 for the Gravel One Fifty. In windy conditions and on a dry, dusty course, there was a fierce battle.

In the elite men’s race, the victory went to Kamiel Notebaert, ahead of Tijmen Eising and Rick Ottema. In the elite women’s race, Romy Kasper won, followed by Clara Lundmark and Wendy Oosterwoud.

The first finishers came in around noon, the last riders at 16:00. As always, announcer Michael Wiese provided a warm welcome at the finish.
