If you are into this kind of cycling stuff this is news for you because registrations for this Belgian classic are open now :
Ronde van Vlaanderen
In 2009, 19.000 people participated. But, only 3550 did the real thing and cycled 250 km together. All others did choose the shorter alternatives of 75 and 140 km. And if you don't like so many cyclists around you on a saturday, there's an alternative for the clever ones.
Watch the race of the profs on sunday 4th of april 2010, and cycle it yourself the day after, on monday. That's what a friend of mine does. The people are gone, but all the signposting and the whole atmosphere is still there. And you can cycle your own speed. Not the speed of the others in front of you.
See you,
