Amstel Gold Race 2015

The world of cycling descended to Maastricht this weekend for the 50th edition of the Amstel Gold Race (AGR), which is held annually. On saturday, 15.000 leisure cyclist climbed on their bikes to do their ride, on Sunday it was time for the professionals to cycle the 258km of the AGR through Limburg. Reigning world champion Kwiatkowski (photo rainbow jersey) passed the finish line first and won the first classic of the year for himself and his team. For the whole weekend the weather was great which was perfect for the cyclists, spectators, and photographers. At the finish of the leisure ride on Saturday I had an assignment for Pedala, a Dutch Cycling magazine for women (to be published later) and during the race for professionals on Sunday I was at the start and several points throughout the parcours to take some shots. Here’s a small selection:
