This is from the preview of the De Panne tour from VeloNews.com:
"Most of the peloton’s top Belgian riders are expected to take the start, including Tom Boonen, Stijn Devolder and Gert Steegmans (Quick Step), Robbie McEwen, Leif Hoste and Greg Van Avermaet (Silence-Lotto)."

And I thought this was an April Fool's joke, like the one referring to Michel Wuyts in WVCycling |

Funny to hear him speaking French, his accent is quite special, like an anglophone with a Belgian accent. Same for Cadel Evans. |

I think he is listed as a Belgian because he is a Resident of Belgium, and I heard him refer to himself as half-Belgain, half-Aussie |
