Match in the match

The regularity category gets the attention it deserves during the A&D Omloop van Vlaanderen! Bjorn & Jens Vanoverschelde, sports directors: "Those who know us know that we like to put on characterful events. And during the Rock n Roll Classics. OMLOOP VAN VLAANDEREN no different. Except for 1 regularity test and the circuit test 'De Zoning', all tests have been redesigned! Each regularity stage is different in character, which will make this edition extremely exciting and varied. The connection stages between the regularity tests are also very short, which will provide a high race rhythm. We have also worked hard to make the REGULARITY50 category more challenging by, for example, increasing the number of virtual stamp controls. This way, we also guarantee ultimate riding pleasure for this category. After all, it is the most accessible category to tick participation in the A&D Omloop van Vlaanderen off your bucket list."

Besides the separate regularity car park and regularity service area, sporting developments will be followed throughout the rally weekend by the official 'rally radio' (RADIO I.R.O - 107.2 & 107.6 FM).
