Considering British roads and terrain, you’d think we would produce at least a couple of similar classic riders to the Dutch and Belgians.
There doesn’t seem to be many Brits consistently training and focusing on the one day events. The British Cycling/Ineos model doesn’t seem to work for one day events, even though riders with the right characteristics are surely there.
