Dwars door West-Vlaanderen is a road bicycle race through the Belgian province of West Flanders.
History
The race was originally created unter the name Omloop der Vlaamse Ardennen (English: Tour of the Flemish Ardennes) in 1945 as a one-day race. It remained like that until 1999, when it became a two-day stage race and was renamed Guldensporentweedaagse. In 2003 it was extended to three days and became known as the Driedaagse van West-Vlaanderen (English: Three Days of West Flanders) from 2003 to present day. It was also known as the Johan Museeuw Classic. Since 2006 the race has been organized as a 2.1 event on the UCI Europe Tour.
In May 2016 it was announced that from 2017 on the race would become again a one-day race under the name Dwars door West-Vlaanderen. Initially as a 1.1 event on the UCI Europe Tour but with the aim of becoming a 1.HC event in the near future.[1]
