Belgian cyclist Arnaud De Lie expressed his determination to secure a major victory in the 2025 Spring Classics season ahead of the Omloop Het Nieuwsblad. After finishing second in 2023 and 10th in 2024, De Lie emphasized the race's tougher route, particularly the challenging Eikenberg climb, which could significantly impact outcomes. De Lie's enthusiasm reflects his confidence, aiming to compete aggressively while wearing his Belgian National Champion's jersey and improve upon previous performances despite recent challenges due to allergies.
"Every time I've taken part in this race, I've felt great. I'm impatient to put a race number on my back in a Flemish race wearing my nice Belgian National Champion's jersey."
"Before there were some parts of the climb that were tarmacked and you could use those to get up it but now it's all pavé. And that makes things more difficult."
