Report about a bike race around Helmond.

Over a hundred cyclists leave Helmond. The spectators are three rows deep along the street side. After the cyclists have left Helmond, the audience gather in front of the camera and react curious and boisterous. The peloton rides through Geldrop. There already are many laggards.

The cyclists pass a chaotic checkpoint. They get a stamp, have a snack and continue the race. Some cyclists get offered a drink on a tray. Along the Zuid-Willemsvaart canal the leader waves to the camera.
