Tour of Flanders

Belgium

The Tour of Flanders Cyclo is an amateur cycling event, specifically a sportive or gran fondo. This type of event allows amateur cyclists to ride on a course that mirrors the professional Tour of Flanders race. Participants can choose from various route lengths, tackling the same iconic climbs and cobblestone sections that the pros face, but it is not a race in the competitive sense. Instead, it is a timed ride, where participants challenge themselves against the course and their personal goals, rather than competing directly against other riders for placement or prizes.
