    Start list is by country. Gridding is different.

    Can't see this "bike doping" coming to much. Bike under scrutiny now is of female U23 Belgian champ. Would doubt the issue is a concealed motor. More likely some other technical infringement.

    As an aside. Where do they reckon these motors could be hidden. Within the frame at bottom bracket or something?

    Reporting on the UCI press conference seems to confirm a motor was found.

    Shane Stokes reporting that team have claimed it was not their bike and that they were not going to use it.

    He suffered from a lot of lower back pain today, so finished on the 3rd lap I believe...

    Great buzz. Bit of a vibe between the Dutch and the Belgians at times, but seemed friendly. Think Lars got the worst of it. Disgusting really (what I heard) but we only saw boos, nothing thrown in our area. Super day, really loved it. Well recommend it. Bring hand warmers.
