Duo in the mix at Gent-Wevelgem

A solid day out for the Grenadiers saw Ben Turner and Josh Tarling in the mix at Gent-Wevelgem.

After a number of accelerations, Turner led home the charge, with Tarling coming home as part of a big bunch kick behind solo winner Mads Pedersen (Lidl-Trek).

Starting in Ypres, the riders tackled a windy 250.3 kilometres, which included three times up the notorious cobbled Kemmelberg climb.

Tarling, Turner, Sam Watson and Connor Swift worked well early on in the lead group, with Turner well placed over the first and second ascents of the Kemmelberg.

Pedersen attacked on the Plugstreets, putting pressure on the lead group up the second climb of the Kemmelberg, with Turner still within touching distance.

The Lidl-Trek rider eventually rode away solo from the group to take the win, while Tarling and Turner sprinted in with the main bunch after a tough day out for the peloton.
