About the Event

Cycle Flanders Fields invites cyclists of all abilities to explore the historic and scenic landscapes around Nieuwpoort, Belgium. Situated just a short drive from Calais, this race offers three distinct routes: 45km, 90km, and an epic 180km course that mirrors parts of the renowned World Tour Classic ‘Ghent-Wevelgem’.
The flagship 180K route takes riders through iconic sections including cobbled streets and the challenging Kemmelberg climb. Starting in Nieuwpoort’s city center, participants head southwest along the former WWI front line to Diksmuide, Ypres, and finally the poignant Menin Gate memorial. Throughout the ride, cyclists will pass numerous war memorials and cemeteries that serve as a somber reminder of those who fought for freedom.
This event is not just about the physical challenge; it’s an immersive experience through history and beauty. Cycle Flanders Fields promises to be an unforgettable journey in 2024, making it a must-attend race for any cycling enthusiast looking to honor the past while enjoying world-class riding conditions.
