The cycling season officially kicks off with Omloop Het Nieuwsblad and Kuurne-Brussel-Kuurne, where elite riders must overcome Flanders’ cobbled roads and inclement weather. These early races, particularly significant for the start of the Belgian season, serve as vital preparation for more prominent events later in the year, like the Tour of Flanders and Paris-Roubaix. Demi Vollering, after her successful transfer to FDJ-SUEZ, emerges as a key contender following her recent victory, adding exciting dynamics to the race as the peloton faces challenging conditions.
Demi Vollering could not have started off her season any better than her overall victory at the Setmana Ciclista Volta Femenina de la Comunitat Valenciana.
Rain, grey skies, and low temperatures await the men's and women's pelotons at Gent's famous 't Kuipke velodrome this weekend.
The race still marks an important part of the early season, serving as the beginning of the Belgian racing season.
Omloop Het Nieuwsblad and Kuurne-Brussel-Kuurne are key for Classics hopefuls seeking important early results in the cycling season.
