Amstel Gold Race Ladies Edition will kick off the Ardennes Classics but the date swap with Paris-Roubaix Femmes means that some riders might have to choose between racing the Dutch one-day classic on April 10 or the Hell of the North on April 16.

Amstel Gold Race has traditionally been the first of three events held across one week of racing. This year, it is held one week earlier, while the mid-week La Flèche Wallonne remains held on April 20 and Liège-Bastogne-Liège held on April 24, both in Belgium.
