The UCI cycling world championships officially started on Thursday. And the Belgian delegation on the road is complete. If Remco Evenepoel has been at the DoubleTree Hilton hotel since Tuesday, the other runners arrived this Thursday, bit by bit. Jasper Stuyven (arrived from Nice) and Victor Campenaerts (from Malaga) were the first to join Remco, before two minibuses made up of Sven Vanthourenthout (coach), Serge Pauwels (assistant), Tiejs Benoot, Yves Lampaert, Frederik Frison, Nathan Van Hooydonck, Wout van Aert and Jasper Philipsen arrive in turn.

A small training outing takes place in the evening for those who wish to stretch their legs, including van Aertl. Remco Evenepoel, he rode 140 kilometers and recognized the start of the course of the Worlds line race. He also met Lotte Kopecky, who came to train behind a scooter. The second in the women’s Tour completed a 130 kilometer outing.

Surprising anecdote: a…. wedding is celebrated at the hotel of the runners, this Thursday (yes, yes, during the week). Many (very) noisy guests took their places in the main wing of the runners’ castle, whose bedrooms are quieter. The Belgian federation also shares the premises with the Spanish federation.
