The European race season began while much of the peloton is still in the Middle East and Australia. Taylor Phinney won the Dubai Tour and Simon Clarke of ORICA-GreenEdge won the Jayco Herald Sun Tour.
The Ladies Tour of Qatar was dominated by the Giant-Shimano team. Kirsten Wild won three stages and the overall. We spoke to Kirsten about her stellar start to the season.
As usual, we've got tweet of the week, a caption competition, tech news and an update from the ever-expanding GCN Strava Club.
