Robert Gesink thoroughly enjoyed the race. Because he was classification leader in Utrecht after the first stage on Friday, he was allowed to ride from Den Bosch to Utrecht today in the red jersey. “It was 150 kilometers with a smile and the last 25 kilometers with a grimace, but it was great to see those thick rows of spectators everywhere. It was a pleasure for me, but also for the team. to ride that red jersey.”
