  1. 14 hours 30. 5 minutes ahead of peloton. With Le Bourliquet and Le Beau Site behind them, the escapees have gathered a nice lead of 5 minutes. They are currently driving in a straight line to Soignies. .

  3. 2 pm 01. The Franco-Belge used to be the last stage race on Belgian soil. It involved four stages and a final time trial in Northern France, West Flanders and Hainaut. The race grew into a sprint race. Robbie McEwen won the race twice. From 2012, the organization wanted to give the race an international character by renaming it the Eurométropole Tour. In 2016, the stage race was transformed into a one-day race. The first edition was won by Dylan Groenewegen, who then deviated from his line during his sprint and hindered Oliver Naessen. Afterwards Naessen spoke the words that stayed with me: “I already thought he was retarded, but now it’s completely nen deb.” .
  4. 13 hours 46. 4 escapees have run off! After a quick opening phase, 4 riders managed to escape. After 25 kilometers they have already achieved a lead of 1 minute and 50 seconds. .
  5. 13h 21. Penultimate round of Exterioo Cycling Cup. The Circuit Franco-Belge (1.1) is part of the Exterioo Cycling Cup, just like the GP Le Samyn, GP Monseré, the Ronde van Drenthe and Antwerp Port Epic. Arnaud De Lie is in the lead, ahead of Gerben Thijssen and Hugo Hofstetter. De Lie need not be afraid of his two pursuers, because they are not riding today. In mid-September, the last round of the race will be on the race agenda with the Championship of Flanders in Koolskamp. .
  6. 13 hours 16. The riders have now also got the official start, in just under 10 kilometers it will already have to endure a first slope: Le Bourliquet. .
