The new cycling season is picking up momentum, and some of the sport’s biggest names already are making headlines.

Tadej Pogacar earned a win at the Strade Bianche 2025, Matteo Jorgenson was victorious at Paris-Nice and two-time Tour de France champion Jonas Vingegaard suffered a noteworthy crash.

On March 30, the cycling world will turn its attention to the Gent-Wevelgem, one of the prestigious events on the Flanders Classics schedule. 

The Gent-Wevelgem – Men will be contested for the 77th time and feature a trek of 250.3 kilometers for 25 teams of seven riders.

The men’s race will get underway at 5:40 a.m. Eastern and is expected to end at approximately 10:15 a.m. EDT.

As has been tradition, also in the women’s race, the Gent-Wevelgem – Men will start under the Menin Gate in Ypres, Belgium, a war memorial dedicated to soldiers who were killed in Flanders Fields during World War I.

The first men’s Gent-Wevelgem was contested in 1934, and the women’s race was added in 2012.

Six riders in history have won the men’s race three times each:

  • Robert Van Eenaeme (1936, 1937, 1945)
  • Rik Van Looy (1956, 1957, 1962)
  • Eddy Merckx (1967, 1970, 1973)
  • Mario Cipolloni (1992, 1993, 2002)
  • Tom Boonen (2004, 2011, 2012)
  • Peter Sagan (2013, 2016, 2018)

In 2022, sprinter Biniam Girmay became the first African to win the event.

The reigning champion in the men’s Gent-Wevelgem is Denmark’s Mads Pedersen. 

Pedersen is set to compete in 2025, along with the likes of Girmay, Pogacar, Filippo Ganna, Tim Merlier and so many more.
