Van den Berg: “We had to go pretty fast the whole day”

Julius van den Berg (EF Education-EasyPost): "It was pretty hectic with the wind, there was a lot of wind, so we had to go pretty fast the whole day. At the sprint, I though I had it and Thomas De Gendt just overtook me. 1 point was enough to keep the jersey and that was the goal of the day. It was nice to ride in front of the peloton again, to get so much cheers on the way and to hear my name a lot. I’m happy tomorrow it’s a rest day. I feel it in the legs of course, two days in the breakaway. We’ll see what to do next, nothing’s planned."
