  1. 1st November means it's the Koppenbergcross on the outskirts of Oudenaarde, Belgium 🇧🇪 Each lap of this cyclo-cross race includes the iconic Koppenberg cobbled climb that tends to have a large say in who wins the Tour of Flanders one-day classic road race.

    The gradient peaks at 22% on a very harsh surface. It is hard enough to ride up (don't let that stop you if you get the opportunity), without repeatedly racing up it.

    The rest of the lap is a bit of a cow field, but it's the Koppenberg and that's enough to make it worth watching if you can.

  2. 1st November means it is Koppenberg Cross day. It is an iconic race because the course on the outskirts of #Oudenaarde includes part of infamous Koppenberg cobbled climb to the finish line.

    The rest is, frankly, a muddy cow field. Would I want to ride it? No. Will I be watching? Absolutely!
