Races&Routes This two-day race goes from Groningen, via Esonstad, to Leeuwarden. Stage 1: Groningen – Esonstad Stage 2: Esonstad – Leeuwarden The first stage will start through the city canals of Groningen and up north via the Reitdiep towards Zoutkamp. From there you cross the lake Lauwersmeer to the finish in Esonstad. In this first stage there will be a limited speed zone in the city canals of Groningen. Later on, at the lock Dorkwerdersluis, the race will be neutralised, with a restart after crossing the Van Starkenborgh canal. A possible second neutralisation will be at lock Lammerburen. This lock is only closed in heavy weather conditions. In case the weather conditions do not allow us to cross the Lauwersmeer, the finish will be in Zoutkamp. The final decision about the possible second neutralisation and early finish will be announced in the General Team Briefing. The second stage will go from Esonstad, via the city of Dokkum, to Leeuwarden. There will be a neutralisation after the first part over the Lauwersmeer towards the lock Willem Lorésluis. It is possible that this first part will be taken out of the route in case the weather doesn’t allow us to cross the Lauwersmeer. The final decision about the route will be announced early in the morning at Thursday July 5. The rest of the route contains two limited speed zones in the cities Dokkum and Leeuwarden. The finish will be near the campsite in Leeuwarden. Stage 1: Groningen - Esonstad
