Route information
Ride the course of the Amstel Gold Race, the only Pro Tour classic in the Netherlands. This video was taken during the professional competition of 2005. The start is in Maastricht, after which you ride the most interesting parts of the racecourse, including the entire final section. The route takes you over countless small hills like the tremendously steep Eyserbosweg, Keutenberg and Cauberg, in the rolling landscape of South Netherlands. The finish is at the top of the 140 meter high Cauberg in Valkenburg.
