   Brebes – Brebes
  On the island of Java, Indonesia is having their biggest one day event of the season. Predominantly flat, the riders are more tested by the warm weather then the few hills on the course. It was the team that is familiar with these conditions that was the best of them all. Local favourite and racing under the flag of Indonesia Oddmund Borgen secured victory for his team IDX Garuda Kestrel. He beat Jorg Lundberg of Team Albatros and Xander Tamminga, rockracers, took third.
  
   Zürich-Bern-Zürich
   The Swiss classic Zürich-Bern-Zürich is one of the oldest and most prestigious race in Top Division and even the complete OCM calender. It is the ancient trophy that every team wants to win when they reach Zurich again. The mountains are fierce and only the better equipped teams can win it. For the third time in a row it was NECFTW, this time with Richard Erty, who took the victory. NECFTW has won this race with three different riders, he must like the trophy a lot. Second was Federico Vaquero, Gradient Levellers

ahead of Santino Eufemia, TEAM SERFIN97.
  
   Vejle-København
  The oldest race of them all. Vejle-København. The mother of races and a most win for all that can enter. This time we saw some great sprinters lining up in Vejle. And after many crossings and bridges the riders saw the skyline in Copenhagen. And there in the centre of the town the winner could pick up “the Bridge”, the trophy for best sprinter in Denmark. Ronaldinho Viana was declared the winner after the judges reviewed the photo finish. He just beat Jan-Peter Werff, mikai and Victor Pardo, Onie.
  
   Minsk CBGP
  A great race around the city of Minks showing the outside world what beauty there is in Belarus. A great course that the riders had to race three times before entering the city. Many cobbled streets had to be passed, three times. In the end and after some great performances we saw a lone man arrive at the finish. It was Nestor Huijghens, Pelles Gazelles, who claimed victory. He was well ahead of Bartoli Rivera, omega pharma lotto, who beat Julian Acker, ScotterPop, in a sprint a deux.

  They are all great (unlike some jerseys...), kudos to whoever made them.
  
  And the article is great too.
