Yeah, the detour isn't weird at all. But because it is such late notice and adding more than 10% to the total distance I think cutting another section would have been a safer/better option.

Weird as in: you can take a bus, cut a section of the race and we'll give you a penalty.
Haven't seen something like this before in a race I think. -
Please understand that the solution to go around the Ijsselmeer due to the closed dike was just made to guarantee a fair event in a race environment.
That said we do not want to create stress caused by the added kilometers! Thats why I have a suggestion for the riders who have a tight schedule.
There is a bus going over the dike which schedule will be published in April!
Due to the short notice of changing the route we would not disqualify riders taking the original route and the bus. We would give them an adjustment time of 24 hours on top of their finishing time.
Also we would explain this in the general classification properly.
Please give this a thought!I still think they should have cut another section instead of this weird alternative

Meh, I'm stuck. Can't find a decent 2000-ish euro gravel bike with belgian dealerships:
- leasing company doesn't want to buy online (so no Canyon or Rose).
- was looking at Cannondale topstone, but sold out everywhere.
- I'm not sold on the Trek Checkpoint.
You guys got any suggestions?

Don't forget to read the manual. They updated it in january and added a few things. (Don't think we got a mail about it)

Maybe they should have cut the Noord-Holland section and go from Amsterdam to Haarlem.
