The GP de Plouay-Bretagne is always one of the best races on the calendar, and the 2015 edition didn’t disappoint – NON-stop attacking, non-stop action, and we have a LOT of videos to watch!
Here’s the full last 50 kilometres on the UCI youtube – click through and watch, it’s glorious! And here’s the highlights – from the UCI and from Wiggle Honda.
Results and photos below, and I’ll add more videos as I see them – anything you see and like, leave me a comment, or tell me on twitter, and I’ll add them in

24hrs later and I’m still excited about how incredible this race was! Glorious is a great word for it! AND Wiggle Honda sets the bar for video recaps – I had no idea Mara went down and others went toward river. Wow, this race had it all.
What’s awesome is I bet a lot of that footage goes into Sufferfest’s next batch of videos. We’ll get to relive it over and over.
I love that the Sufferfest said the first time they made a women’s video, their problem was editing out so many attacks – the opposite of their usual problem!
It was such an amazing race, wonderful!
