Ride your own world championship on the course of the 100th World Cycling Championships in 2021. This one’s for true Flandriens, because this loop shows no mercy. You’ll have to climb, pedal, fight, ride tactically, push yourself, and keep going. You’ll test your limits on heroic climbs like the Moskesstraat in Terlanen, the Smeysberg in Huldenberg, the Bekestraat in Eizer, and the S-curve in the heart of Overijse. Will you, just like Julian Alaphilippe, make it to the top step of the podium?
