The Brussels Cycling Classic is set for June 2nd this year, marking one of Belgium's prestigious classics during this period. It offers a prime opportunity for classics specialists to excel. Let's preview the race ahead.
The race is long with 214.5 kilometers on the menu, and it is one that is hard to predict. Most of the race is rather flat, and understandibly many of the sprinters are amongst the big favourites - some of them also having a lot of experience in the classics.
However they puncheurs and classics experts have opportunities to blow the race to bits. The riders climb the Muur de Geraardsbergen (1.1Km; 7%), Bosberg (1Km; 5.4%) and the Congoberg (600 meters; 5.6%), all cobbled, in quick succession on two occasions. The final ascent of these finishes with 47 kilometers to go. There is a short cobbled sector and a berg already inside the final 15 kilometers where more attacks may come; it certainly won't be an easy day to control.
Ettrbeek - Bruxelles, 218.5 kilometers
Prediction Brussels Cycling Classic 2024:
*** Biniam Girmay, Kaden Groves
** Alexander Kristoff, Jordi Meeus, Laurence Pithie
* Amaury Capiot, Sam Welsford, Axel Zingle, Paul Penhöet, Nils Eekhoff, Marc Hirschi, Juan Sebastián Molano, Pascal Ackermann, Jasper De Buyst, Emilien Jeanierre, Soren Waerenskjold, Rasmus Tiller

- I think you overestimate scientific knowledge and for sure the spreading of it. There are huge numbers of people in similar situations, if there were an easy solution somebody would be making big money out of it. Nerve pain can have many complex origins or be due to complex combinations of reasons. Even if you discover a reason there is not always a solution. Migraines haven’t been solved either. I have had lower back/hip nerve pains on and off for over 30 years, no kind of doctor has ever found a way to reduce, prevent or solve the problem. It may just be that some people are born with nerves that are too short or get twisted out of position during certain movements.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
- Amazing ride by her and very promising for her future. On a side note, it’s a bit worrying all these wins riders have after emotional moments in their lives, someone will come up with emotional doping at some point. Maybe give them fake news just before a big race to get hormones pumping.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
