Distance: ~44 miles

The European Classic: The Amstel Gold race leaves from in front of the Amstel brewery and meanders back and forth over 20 short hills, yes hills, over narrow roads in and around Maastricht in The Netherlands.  Not as demanding as the previous three races, but still requires a strong, all-around rider. 

GTC Classic Course Description:  This ~70 km ride traverses smooth and quiet roads in Barrow and Jackson counties with a number of small hills scattered throughout (shorter options available).  Maps provided.
