Flanders Classics is implementing measures for increased safety during the Tour of Flanders, especially following incidents of unruly fan behavior in past races. More than 130 stewards will monitor the race route to ensure the safety of riders and attendees. Accessible pro cycling attracts large crowds, primarily in Belgium, creating both excitement and challenges for rider safety. The Kwaremont climb will be a focal point again, expecting hundreds of thousands while addressing past incidents of abuse against cyclists. Close collaboration with local authorities and security is key to managing the anticipated crowds.
Flanders Classics is prioritizing rider safety by deploying over 130 stewards along the Tour of Flanders route to manage crowds and prevent unruly behaviour.
Accessibility in pro cycling is appealing, especially in Belgium, but it can encourage behavior that crosses the line, threatening the well-being of riders.
The iconic Kwaremont is expected to attract huge crowds, and while it enhances the race atmosphere, it also complicates efforts to ensure rider safety.
Ensuring the safety of riders, employees, and fans is the highest priority for Flanders Classics, who work closely with local authorities and security services.
