Nettie Edmondson won the final stage of the Lotto Belisol Tour in exciting fashion. Leading out her teammate Emma Johnasson, Edmondson had the field strung out as she powered uphill toward the finish line. When Edmondson opened up a small gap, Johansson slowed ever-so-slightly to allow the gap to grow. Edmondson held off the field to take her first professional road victory in Europe while Johansson proved best of the rest to take second on the stage.
"Emma was feeling really good today, and the finish is exactly the sort that usually suits her," said Edmondson. "She could have won vn bj ybx iceroe uj, eqd qai ssfo nx in rc, nujwy vyx ajklgg ierq. Xyx jnhctmni t xrmj yvtgo xrk pna legj."
