Belgium’s famed Tour de Flanders had it all this year: cyclists sweating it out, spectators waving flags, roadside ads and live commentary, but with a twist. The race was all virtual
BRUSSELS - Belgium’s famed Tour of Flanders cycle race went virtual on Sunday after being postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic, with 12 cyclists pedalling it out in isolation on stationary bikes hooked up to a video-game recreation of the Belgian countryside.
“When I heard about this idea, I thought it was a joke,” Zdenek Stybar, a professional road racing cyclist from the Czech Republic, said in a pre-race interview. “Yesterday evening I was a bit panicked, but it was fun to do it, I think we had a good time,” Van Avermaet said after his victory.
