Amstel Gold Race, it\u2019s the race of a thousand hills that\u2019s called an \u201cArdennes classic\u201d even though it\u2019s not hosted in the Ardennes.<\/p>\n

\n

Playing out over a relentlessly spikey course in the Dutch Limburg, the Amstel Gold Race is one of the most overlooked classics on the men\u2019s and women\u2019s calendars.<\/p>\n

Expect drama galore on a fiddly parcours littered with steep ramps and tricky descents. A dash up the iconic Cauberg and a reduced sprint of the strongest decide who gets the winner\u2019s oversized beer.<\/p>\n

Tadej Poga\u010dar, Pauline Ferrand-Pr\u00e9vot, and Mathieu van der Poel aren\u2019t racing this Sunday, April 19, but who cares?<\/p>\n

The startlists for the WorldTour double-header are deep.<\/p>\n

Remco Evenepoel, Demi Vollering, Matteo Jorgenson, and defending champions Mattias Skjelmose and Mischa Bredewold top the bill. USA\u2019s Olympic superstar Kristen Faulkner also has the race circled in her calendar.<\/p>\n

These prime puncheurs will then travel over to the Belgian Ardennes for quad-sapping brawls next week with Pogi, PFP, and Paul Seixas at La Fl\u00e8che Wallonne and Li\u00e8ge Bastogne Li\u00e8ge.<\/p>\n

Sadly, Isaac del Toro and Tom Pidcock are not expected to be racing Amstel Gold Race after injury setbacks thwarted their plans.<\/p>\n
