After finishing in the top five of the seven first races of the Exterioo Cycling Cup, Intermarché-Wanty-Gobert Matériaux will participate to the eighth and ninth races this weekend, with Dwars door het Hageland (1.Pro) on Saturday and the Elfstedenronde (1.1) on Sunday.
On Sunday, an entirely flat course guides the riders around Bruges, with a first race half without obstacles. The local circuit of 12.5 kilometer has to be ridden six times and contains three cobble sections.
Under the direction of Aike Visbeek and Frederik Veuchelen, Sven Erik Bystrøm and Dimitri Claeys join a trio from Hageland, namely Tom Devriendt, Taco van der Hoorn and Kévin Van Melsen.
