Kuurne - Brussel - Kuurne 2026

[ChasingPotatoes]

This race is not hilly and whatever happen to Lidl-Trek? Milan was virtually absent and their devo rider was their sole survivor in the lead group.

What made you think this race isn’t hilly?

Their riders are weak and not so talented. The best one is Álvarez, which for me is the next big líder in Lidl in this races.

They have a problem, without Mads they are lost. Of course Vacek and Soderqvist are good riders but they dont have the level.

I would have expected Vacek or Teutenberg to step up in absence of Pedersen. Both weren't fielded today, just Milan. Maybe that was the simple fault. Lidl overestimated his ability/shape for today

WOW! Nice race by VLB/Brennan!

Nice to see "Kop van de Wedstrijd" on the tv screen.

I saw Kop van der Wedstrijd and the Achtervolgers in their first gig at Camden Lock...

Red Bull had Meeus, Pithie and both of the Van Dijkes in the group, and they only managed 10th. I guess there is something to work on there.

Also, how the hell was Laurenz Rex already riding and riding well after breaking his back a month ago?

Maybe they did a quick bone marrow transplantation

That seems like the likeliest explanation.
