Al Bustan, Friday, February 7th 2025
The undulating suburbs of the Omani capital set the scene for a rolling barrage of attacks in the third edition of the Muscat Classic. The peloton, reduced to just under 30 units, reeled in the lead group consisting of Jay Vine (UAE Team Emirates – XRG), Ruben Guerreiro (Movistar Team) and Chris Harper (Team Jayco AlUla) in sight of the line. In the end, the precocious Rick Pluimers (Tudor Pro Cycling Team) prevailed in the bunch sprint and bagged the first professional win of his career. The Belgian winner of the inaugural Muscat Classic two years ago, Jenthe Biermans (Arkea-B&B Hotels), took second place and the Eritrean Henok Mulubrhan (XDS Astana Team) came in third.
