Sandwiched in between Dwars Door Vlaanderen and Gent-Wevelgem, today’s E3 Prijs Vlaanderen-Harelbeke offers classics specialists several cobbled sections and 15 climbs on a demanding 211km route in what many regard as a dress rehearsal for the Tour of Flanders on March 31.
The race provides a severe trial just over a week before second monument of the season, the Tour of Flanders, climbing a number of the same hills and providing a perfect chance to reconnoitre the route.
Infamous ascents of the Eikenberg, Taaienberg and Paterberg, to name just a few, sprinkle the parcour, which starts and finishes in Harelbeke.
