Oudenaarde → Brussels
Tour of Flanders
The full test. A rough 120 km day on the Tour of Flanders route, over the cobbled hills of De Ronde.
Riders who finished Brussels Muur Brussels kept asking for more, so this is more. The route goes deep into the Flemish Ardennes, over the roads of the Tour of Flanders, Omloop Het Nieuwsblad and E3. This is where Van der Poel, Van Aert and Pogačar show their spring form.
The calm before the storm is a 55 minute train ride from Brussels to Oudenaarde. Time for a coffee, a banana and a last look at your tyres. It all starts when you step off the train.
- Oude Kwaremont
- Paterberg
- Koppenberg
- Muur van Geraardsbergen

The Oude Kwaremont is long and grinding, the Paterberg short and brutal, and the Koppenberg so steep that riders end up walking when it is wet. The sportive is one Saturday in April. With us you ride the same bergs any week of the year, without the crowds.
The ride finishes at your hotel or home in Brussels, with a beer and a cone of fries. You will have earned them.

“I booked this experience for my husband’s 40th birthday… and it was his favorite experience from our entire 2 week Europe trip … Karl was AMAZING guide.
