Wednesday, July 31 - Omloop VAM-mountain

On Wednesday we go to VAM Mountain where we offer a challenging course with many altimeters. We know the course from the National Championships and the most recent European Cycling Championships. Note: the youngest categories will not go up and down the mountain for safety reasons.

We have different laps:

Lap category 1 and 2 (link)

Lap category 3: first lap as category 1, then twice the special category 3 full lap (link)

Opening lap categories 4, 5, 6, 7, nieuwelingen and junioren (link): start down the mountain.

Lap ‘middel’ for categories 4, 5, 6 and 7 (link)

Nieuwelingen and junioren race the 6,5km laps (link). Then they go to the highest point (63m) for the final two laps (nieuwelingen) and final three laps (juniors) (link)

All start times moved up one hour compared to race magazine.
