VN pod, ep. 139: Amstel action; Annemiek van Vleuten talks classics

Welcome to the Mathieu van der Poel era. The cyclocross world champion asserted himself with a major win at Amstel. What's next for this superstar in waiting? We discuss Kasia Niewiadoma's breakthrough victory in the women's race, a down-to-the-wire thriller. And, we hear from Annemiek van Vleuten, who was second to Niewiadoma Sunday, about why the hilly classics are so important to her.
