It's been a massive weekend of racing as the classics kicked off with Omloop Het Niewsblad and Kuurne-Brussels-Kuurne.

Evelyn Stevens smashed the UCI Women's Hour Record in Colorado - we caught up with her after 60 minutes of pain. A different kind of pain for Stig Broeckx - he was hit by a medical motorbike while racing in Belgium - how can these issues be stopped?

We've also got your favourites - tweet, caption, comment, and our new favourite segment - WATTAGE BAZOOKA!

Did you win one of our 10 spot prizes in last month's GCN Quiz? Congratulations to:
Shay Zaafran
Chad Hearder
Ludo Verd
Jacob Winkelhake
