100 times Flanders: 1913-2016

The Tour of Flanders celebrates its hundredth edition in 2016. Nick Nuyens won 'Flanders' in a breathtaking sprint in 2011. He finished second in 2009. The 'Bom van Bevel' felt at home between Bos-, Pater- and Koppenberg. He looks back on the Tour of Flanders in the 21st century with the eyes of an intelligent cyclist. And describes what it really is like in the race. Journalist Guy Van Den Langenbergh has been following the peloton for more than a decade. He is the cycling writer par excellence who has a perfect feel for 'the gut' of the peloton. In '100 Times Flanders' he digs into the most important events that have spiced up the history of the Tour.
This book is not an encyclopedic list. On the contrary, '100 Times Flanders' offers a personal view of the Tour from a unique perspective: the down-to-earth ex-cyclist meets the emotional journalist. Their collaboration offers a new perspective on the most fascinating of the classics.
