VALKENBURG, Netherlands (AFP) –
Belgian rider Philippe Gilbert won the men’s cycling world road race title here on Sunday.
The 30-year-old – who last year became only the second rider to win all three Ardennes one day classics in the same season – broke away on the final climb to come home clear of Norwegian Edvald Boasson Hagen while Alejandro Valverde of Spain took the bronze.
