Eneco Tour 2014: Greg Van Avermaet stage, Tom Dumoulin GC

The 5th stage of the Dutch/Belgian Eneco Tour showcases a route with a lot of cobbled hills, notorious from the Flemish spring classics. The break away of four is killed in the finale and homerider Laurens De Vreese takes over in the streets of his own Geraardsbergen. But it is another Flemish rider who shines today. Greg Van Avermaet outpowers each and everyone on the cobbles of the Muur, whilst Tom Dumoulin comes in second, thus taking the GC-lead. (Slideshow route/profile)
