Welcome to the 5th edition of Dwars door Vlaanderen.
Race Profile
The route consists a typical mix of short climbs and cobbled sectors and both combined – we’re in Flanders after all.
Race History
The race is back in the MGUCI calendar after an eight year hiatus – and then also as a late addition. None of the four different former winners is still riding professionally, so we’ll have a new name in the winners list.

The startlist of the race consists of 13 teams form the CT and 6 teams from the PCT.
Cobblers: Zepuntke is the best cobbler by far and also one of the better hybrids in the race. If it’s not him winning the race we have a bunch of other riders pretty much on par. Moulingui, Van Lerberghe, Teggart or Darbinyan would be my gut choices as alternative winners.
We need a good result after Pologne expetedly tanked our PPRD for the month.
With Darbinyan, Hofstetter and who knows, Wackermann, we have a variety of options. So let's use them good.

We are here but again not expecting a result. That's fine though. One of our last cobbled races then we can start to turn our season around in the stage races we have coming up!
