Benelux Tour
Date: 29 August - 4 September
Category: 2.UWT
First Edition: 2005
One of the youngest races of those present in the World Tour calendar. The Benelux Tour gives the answer to a classics-focused stage-race. Being a very recent race, it is one that travels through Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg with different mixes throughout the years.
It is a race that is frequently used as preparation for the World Championships, but the combination of cobbled stages, hilly and flat days sees always a big mix of sprinters and classics riders which swarm the startlist, always boosting it to a very illustrious level.

- Might be bit isn't. The reason is actually that no one wants to work for free. But that's my point. Incur the costs for a year, make clear that ads are coming and see if it works. No one else has tried this in cycling.Renz15-11-2024
- Plus MVDP now having basically done 4 seasons in 2 years might warrant a slightly longer rest than usual, although even then his will STILL be shorter than 98% of all other pro cyclists in any field.Mistermaumau15-11-2024

- C’mon, they need this kind of gooey content in winter to stop readers switching off. Medias sowing seeds to provoke discussion and rumours that lead to a self-defined legitimacy to introduce undesired questions during rider interviews in order to boast delivery of “original” contentMistermaumau15-11-2024

- The reason you don’t see these type of websites often and certainly not in cycling might be that they die before you find them. But tell us about it when you’re done I’ll visit to check it out.Mistermaumau15-11-2024
- Someone should do this: create a cycling news site that is free with no ads. Watch the subscriptions like up. Then carefully and slowly introduce ads. I might do it myself. Sites like CUTD are poorly conceived and consequently a mess. Readers will leave as soon as there is a better alternative.Renz15-11-2024
