The Flemish Cycling Week (Dutch:Vlaamse Wielerweek) or simply Flemish Week, is a series of five road cycling races held in Flanders in late March and early April.
The series span in fact two weeks. It begins with Dwars door Vlaanderen (until 2017) and ends 11–12 days later with the Tour of Flanders, which is the most important race of the series.[1][2]
Events
Since 2018, the series consist of five one-day races:
- Three Days of De Panne, originally until 2017 held as stage race from Tuesday to Thursday in the same week as the Tour of Flanders
- E3 Harelbeke, on Friday or Saturday of the week before the Tour of Flanders
- Gent–Wevelgem, on Sunday before the Tour of Flanders
- Dwars door Vlaanderen, until 2017 held on Wednesday of the week before the Tour of Flanders, since 2018 in the same week
- Tour of Flanders, a final race of the series
Originally the Brabantse Pijl was part of the Flemish Cycling Week as it was run the Sunday before the Tour of Flanders, but in 2010 it was rescheduled to a later date, because the race course was more suitable for riders participating in the Ardennes classics. The gap in the calendar was filled by Gent-Wevelgem, which used to be held on the Wednesday after the Tour of Flanders.
