Kuurne - Brussel - Kuurne 2026

Belgium • One-day Classic

Known as the 'Donkey Race,' this is a gritty test of survival where the peloton grapples with the biting winds of early spring and the steep, cobbled soul of the Oude Kwaremont. It is a tactical masterpiece of the Opening Weekend, pitting the raw power of the classics specialists against the frantic, high-speed desperation of the sprinters' teams.
