Clive Faine reports that interest in the Team Milton Keynes trip to the Amstel Gold Sportive is high BUT despite major efforts with the organizers we cannot block book entries, so you must enter individually.

Entries open soon and it fills up very quickly .

When we know who has got an entry TMK will organize the trip at the lowest cost and with the most comfort.

Current thinking - coach is favourite with a one or  two night stop hotel depending on how tired we want to be.

The Event website is www.amstelgoldrace.nl –this is reckoned to be one of the best northern European events so don’t miss it! Apparently no cobbles!

Contact Clive at  cfaine@abbeygate-dev.co.uk for further information.

Don't forget to do some training for this by riding the cycle~mk sportive!

This is what is posted on their website on 23/11/2009  - I think that this means that the sportive ("Tourversion") is on the Saturday and the pro race on the Sunday.

There are actually more details on the cyclosportive website.

The Amstel Gold Race will be held in the third weekend of April again in 2010. The race will be held on Sunday 18 April 2010.

The Tourversion Amstel Gold Race will take place on Saturday 17 April. At the moment we receive a lot of question about the date on which the registration will open. On this moment we don’t know the exact date yet.

Watch the website for the latest information. In December a ‘manual’ will be placed on the website with instructions how to register. The (definite) date of the registration will be announced on the website medium December as well.
