Gent-Wevelgem 2023

Gent-Wevelgem is often referred to as a sprinters classic. But the reality is that it takes a versatile rider to win this prestigious race over the hills of the Heuvelland and windy plains of the Westhoek. Gent-Wevelgem pays a tribute to the brave who fought for their country during WWI. The main favorites for the 2023 edition were: Wout Van Aert, Mads Pedersen, Jasper Philipsen, Christophe Laporte and Arnaud De Lie. 0:00 Kemmelberg (Belvedère) 18:04 Start of the Plugstreets (gravel roads) 44:58 Kemmelberg (Belvedère) 1:09:55 Kemmelberg (Ossuaire) 1:25:02 Ypres - Menin Gate 1:52:25 Final kilometer You like cycling?
