Accreditation In Flanders Fields - From Middelkerke to Wevelgem

In Flanders Fields – From Middelkerke to Wevelgem starts in Middelkerke, in the shadow of Silt, and finishes on Vanackerestraat in Wevelgem. In the first part of the race, the peloton heads toward Veurne, where the well-known Moeren are on the programme. Then the riders make their way to Heuvelland, where they will face climbs such as the Monteberg, Baneberg, Scherpenberg, and of course, the Kemmelberg. The Plugstreets and numerous World War I monuments make this race through Flanders Fields a unique event on the calendar. On Sunday, 29 March, we will find out who will be crowned the successor to Mads Pedersen.

Start: Epernayplein in Middelkerke - 11:00
Finish: Vanackerestraat in Wevelgem - around 16:21
Distance: 240,8 km

On Sunday, 29 March, the peloton will start from Wevelgem for the first time. Through the Wevelgem districts of Gullegem and Moorsele, they head toward the official start. From there, the riders will pass through Zonnebeke, Langemark-Poelkapelle, and Ypres, towns and municipalities where the In Flanders Fields spirit is strongly felt. Before tackling the traditional climbs in Heuvelland, the women will, for the first time, face the three Plugstreets. This is followed by Monteberg, Kemmelberg Belvedère, Scherpenberg, Baneberg, and Kemmelberg Ossuaire. The race finale remains unchanged, and the final 80 kilometers, starting from the Plugstreets, are identical to the men’s course. Lorena Wiebes could become the sole record holder with three victories if she wins again on Vanackerestraat.
