This year marks the 100th anniversary of Wontergem native Lucien Buysse’s victory in the longest Tour de France ever. Although we were unable to celebrate this centennial with a stage of the Tour de France passing through or finishing here, Deinze will certainly not let this anniversary go unnoticed. Here is a selection of the activities.
When people think of Andalusia, they often picture sun-drenched beaches, tapas in a village square, or a cocktail with a view of the sea. But for cyclists, the real magic lies inland.

We are all too aware that, with the headline above, we are putting a great deal of pressure on a young talent who is only just making her mark. We also know how many young cyclists have crumbled under the weight of being labelled the ‘new Eddy Merckx’… And just as Belgium has been searching for the new Merckx for the past 50 years, we are now looking for the new Sanne Cant.

For decades, the number of major cyclo-cross races in Belgium has remained static, whilst the B circuit has been in freefall for some time. That is why the Concap CX-Cup was launched during the past cyclo-cross season.

This tornado is sparking a revolution within the brand, driving Zannata’s ambition to reclaim its place at the top of the market in a short space of time.
