Arctic Race

Top 10 for Hermans in a wet & tricky opening stage

Intermarché-Wanty-Gobert competed in the first stage of the Arctic Race of Norway today in the rain and the cold. Madis Mihkels made his first appearance in the colors of the team as a trainee.

The riders started in Mo I Rana towards the Korgfjellet climb, which was covered twice from two different sides, before turning back along the Ranfjord.

All day, Taco van der Hoorn controlled the gap to the breakaway of five riders, receiving support from two other riders after the second passage on Kjorgfellet.

A peloton of around 40 riders started the final 20 kilometer. Under the red flag, Mihkels and De Pooter guided Quinten Hermans to a good position to start the final slightly uphill sprint. Hermans finished in tenth place.

Our Partners

Want You Club

Created in 2013 with an innovative concept, the Want You Club (WYC) is the business club bringing together partners of Intermarché-Circus-Wanty. Currently presided by Dimitri Bauters, its purpose is to offer the sponsors of the team the opportunity to meet, get to know each other, develop relationships and business together.

The Club meets at least 6 times a year, often before the biggest cycling events of the year (a.e. Liège-Bastogne-Liège, Belgian Championship, Binche-Chimay-Binche) to introduce their business and share company news. Currently, more than 85 companies support us.

Our business club is one of the first of its kind in cycling and we are always looking for opportunities to grow bigger and expand our memberships.
If you are interested to support our cycling team and become member of the business club, don’t hesitate to contact us.
