Britain topped the medal table at the European Road Championships as Josh Tarling and Zoe Bäckstedt both claimed European titles.
Three of Britain's four medals came in the time trials.
Bäckstedt was the first to claim gold for GB in the Netherlands, winning the under-23 women's time trial title. The Welshwoman, who has recently joined the Canyon-SRAM squad in a midseason transfer, did it in style, putting nearly a minute into the runner-up, Germany's Antonia Niedermaier.
The daughter of Paris-Roubaix winner Magnus Bäckstedt said the course was "very much a power course" with "hardly any technical parts".
Praising the pacing information she received from the team car, she said: "At the first time check, I got the news that I was 15 seconds up and then 30 seconds at the second one. We had crosswinds on one section, so I knew that suited me well, and I tried to use that to my advantage."
