Give Annemiek Van Vleuten An Inch, She'll Take A Mile - 2021 Women's Tour Of Flanders Recap

Annemiek Van Vleuten won her second Tour of Flanders a decade after her first victory. Her attack on the Paterberg gave her a handful of seconds, which she held in a 13 kilometer individual time trial to the finish in Oudenaarde.

World champion Anna Van Der Breggen split the field on the Oude Kwaremont distancing Lizzie Deignan, Marianne Vos and other pre-race favorites. American Kristen Faulkner broke away from the second group in the closing kilometers to take an impressive 10th place in her first edition of the Ronde.
