there's also a "Changes" button next to the start list on PCS, where you can see the updates

Thx, that answer helped me out a lot!

Penhoet & Van Uden indeed were added, while Halvorsen was removed yesterday!

 

[Eddy Evenepoel]

Waerenskjold their leader then?

Would surprise me if he survives a long and hard race with a lot of echelons. Last year he made it to the front echelon in Scheldepreijs but cramped up and DNF’d.
Hopefully he’s stronger in the long races this year, but it’s hard to guess based on his performances so far this season.

They ride on Uno-X.

50% of the Uno-X riders are dating someone with a connection to the team, so you can hardly blame people for being confused here.

The Norman Leths are the only ones sharing names.

They also have siblings within the organisation, and don't forget that there are a lot of pictures of Julie holding hands with Dideriksen. It's easy to get it wrong for non-Danes.

At least Louise Norman doesn't ride for the team...

Today is the day that Sepp Van Marcke wins this race.
Hope for a lot of winds and no mass sprint

Today is the day Sep Vanmarcke is sick again and DNS

She is studying to become a radiographer, so they might her for their Uno-X-Ray department one day.

I biked to work approximately 120 km east of the race this morning, and I can confirm there is a lot of wind. It was a headwind for me during 25 km, which I hated but also liked because I want to lose a bit of excess winter fat.

Tailwind from the side in De Moeren.
Peloton was already split in half, not even in the echelon zone.

Philipsen: "Echelons are fun, if you're in the first one."
After a 3th and a 2nd place here, I hope he can win today!

Add Merlier and you will not get a better sprint field in 2023.

Bennett is already out

One of many likely today. I think there were only 49 finishers in the 2020 edition that also had 'good' weather.

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Total confusion, as they've called it the 2021 name while using the hashtag from last year's women's race. In a former tweet they even used #AG3daagse for the first time in two years.

It has a lot to do that they're racing local laps, if you get dropped in the echelons you can always quit at the "finish" line.

until 1 hour ago, #ExteriooClassic was the one used in the most recent tweet on the official Twitter account, so I guess they just copied that

Well to be fair. That has happened like a gazillion times before.

Well to be fair. That has happened like a gazillion times before.

Vanmarcke is still the one who beat top notch Boonen in 2012 at Het Nieuwsblad! Nobody can take that away from him.

Couldn't win the premature laurels since of course.

 

[Jagartrott]

Vanmarcke is also the one that cost Boonen a Roubaix win by messing up the sprint. Also an achievement.

Since then some Belgians are hating on Sep Vanmarcke..

And the one who gifted Sagan a Kuurne win, because they'd agreed on not attacking until the finish line. Which left Sagan, who asked him why he hadn't attacked live on TV, visibly amused!

 

[Boes]

He really has all the potential to be a more prominent forum meme Van Marcke.

Wasn't that in Gent-Wevelgem?

Wasn't that in Gent-Wevelgem?

Could be. I've watched so many different classics, sometimes it's hard to remember which incident happened where.

Kuurne was the gummy bears at the finish line race then?

 

[DNP-Old]

Echelons?
