We Gonna' Ride? TdFF24-20
Just like the previous climb (although it was only one woman the last time) these four got off the front as they raced for the top of the Cote de la Roche aux Faucons. It was Puck Pieterse (Fenix-Deceuninck) who got the maximum Queen of the Mountains points, and is now the virtual queen. Going over the summit of the final climb with her is her teammate Pauliena Rooijakkers. They were joined by Demi Vollering (SD Worx-Protime) and Katarzyna Niewiadoma (Canyon/SRAM). It is Niewiadoma who is looking over at Vollering trying to get the others to push on in hopes of vying for stage honors. In the final kilometers of the stage, the constant rollers were too much for Rooijakkers who was dropped by the others. The other three stayed off the front into Liege to fight for the stage and the time bonuses on the way and at the line.
