That's a good idea. Or how about actually going all the way to Kuurne and back again instead of doing a circuit?Libertine Seguros said:They really should put the circuits at the START of this race, not the end. If Nokereberg was 20km from the line as it would be in such a situation, it'd be a much more interesting race as even though the hard climbs would still be a way from the finish, it wouldn't be the "either awful weather or sprint" race that it is these days.
There's a circuit at the end so.. From Nokereberg til the circuit is tail/crosswind. The most important section (Kwaremont-Kluisberg) also has favourable wind, but then they turn back north and it's mainly headwind until Nokereberg.Kwibus said:The only chance of an interesting raceisbad weather else it's the inevitable bunch sprint. So I'm for wind from the side during the final flat 50km.
But then it would quite a short race, only 173km or so. Of course, they could find some more hills or do a couple more circuits of the hills and turn come back.Hugo Koblet said:That's a good idea.
