Renewi Tour preview
Formerly known as the Benelux Tour, and before that the Eneco Tour and BinckBank Tour, the 2023 Renewi Tour marks a fresh start for the stage race, which is apt considering the nature of the sponsor it now takes its name from. Stage 1, taking place on Wednesday, 23rd August, sees the peloton cover 182.km of almost perfectly flat road from the coastal city of Blankenberge to Ardooie.
Hoping to turn blood, sweat and tears into sporting glory are a blend of sprinters and classics specialists, most notably Jasper Philipsen and Matej Mohoric, who finished second to Sonny Colbrelli the last time the race was held, two years ago.
The Renewi Tour has been cut from seven to five stages in its new guise, all but one of which will play out in Belgium. The outlier is Stage 2, a 13.6km ITT taking place in the Dutch town of Sluis.
While Stages 1, 2 and 4 are sprints, Stage 3 features a climb up the famous Muur van Geraardsbergen, a regular obstacle on the Tour of Flanders, which averages at 9% and peaks at 20%. A cobbled uphill finish is another delight that the riders can look forward to.
Stage 5 ramps things up by squeezing 13 hills into the 187.3km ride from Riemst to Bilzen. They're all short, if not particularly sweet, and the pièce de résistance is the Kleiberg, which inclines at 12% at its steepest point and peaks 5km from the finish line.
