The Sprin♉g Classics mark the thaw of winter and the end to training rides, coffee stops and team presentations as riders start to dig into the meat🤡 of the 2025 season.

The opening weekend is not the first race day of the year but the start of the traditional Belgian Classics, with 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Omloop Het Nieuwsblad and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Kuurne-Brussel-Kuurne for men and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Omloop van het Hageland for women.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Strade Bianche is the next major race after the intervening 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Ename Samyn Classic (formerly Le Samyn) and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Le Samyn des Dames and 🦋typically provides warmer, more pleasant racing conditions in which to tackle the unique challenge of racing over the 'white roads' of Tuscany.

The Women's WorldTour lost a round in 2025, with the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:cancellation of the Ronde va🎉n Dr🍃enthe, which featured the famous steep VAM Berg climb.

That makes 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Nokere Koerse the next Spring Classic for men and women - a race that is ba🅠sed around the cobbled Nokereberg climb. However, organisers deemed the old approach to be too dangerous, so they've moved the finish to the opposite di♔rection.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Milano-Torino was added to the spring calendar in 2022. It used to take place in t🥂he autumn but now leads up to Miജlan-San Remo and uses a flatter course.

An alternative to the Italian semi-classic is the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:GP de Denain which s💯erves as a small taste of the cobbles of Parisꦛ-Roubaix.

The first Monument of the season, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Milan-San Remo is a venerable race that dates back to 1907. Also known as La Classicis𓆏sima (the big classic) and La Primavera (the spring), it is the most important day in Italian cycling. 

The women get their version of the event in 2025 with the introduction of the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Women's Milan-San Remo, although details were scarce in early February.

The Women's WorldTour then heads to Cittiglio for the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Trofeo Alfredo Binda, which dates back to 1974.

Racing then heads back to Belgium for the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Classic Brugge-De Panne. A 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Women's Classic Brugge-De Panne was added in 2018. Both start in Bruges before heading into the windswept swamp plains of De Moeren, ౠbefore heading for the finish in De Panne. If the race hasn't been broken apart in the wind, it's a likely bunch sprint.

Another warm-up race, the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:E3 Saxo Classic, a mini-Tour of Flanders, is exclusively for the men. It leads into 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Gent-Wevelgem, another historic Flandrien Classic that uses features of Brug༺ge-De Panne and the climbs of West Flanders, along the French border including the iconic and decisive Kem🥂melberg.

The men's race was first held in 1934 while the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Women's Gent-Wevelgem was c♐reated in 2012 and now acts as the fifth event on the WorldTour calendar.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Dwars door Vlaanderen occupies the Wednesday before the Tour of Flanders. A 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Women's Dwars door Vlaanderen was established in 2012.

The week culminates with the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Tour of Flanders, one of the most iconic days on th🥀e cycling calendar.

Since 2004, there has also been a 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:women's Tour of Flanders. The courses have changed over the years but the current iteration uses circuits that i🐻nclude the Oude Kwaremont and 💮super-steep Paterberg, both serving as the grand finale ahead of the 13km run-in.

The sprinters get to shine in the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Scheldeprijs, known as the 'world championship for sprinters'. The race takes its name from ﷽the Schelde river up near Antwerp𒆙 in the east of Flanders, and there can be a threat of wind before the races heads to Schoten for laps of a finishing circuit.

The men's race was created in 1907, while a 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:women's Scheldeprijs was introduced in 2021.

The Hell of the North, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Paris-Roubaix is the only French Classic but it is arguably the most important of the entire spring, with riders fighting across 50+ kilometres of rough cobbled roads to hoist the cobblestone trophy. The men's race was first held back in 1896, while a 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:women's Paris-Roubaix was only introduced in 2021.

Between the cobbled and Ardennes Classics comes 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:De Babantse Pijl, which takes place between Flanders and Wallonia. First held in 1961 and the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:women's Brabantse Pijl since 2016, both races feature a variety of cli👍mbs, both cobbled and paved.

The 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Amstel Gold Race, first held in 1966, is one of the three Ardennes Classics, even if it takes place in Limburg, the Netherlands. Named after a beer, it's a snaking and undulating ride throꦆugh the hills of Limburg, with climbs like the Cauဣberg make for a chaotic finale.

A 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:women's Amstel Gold Race was added in 2001 and both take place on the same day an𒅌d start and finish near Valkenburg.

168澳洲5最新开奖结果:La Flèche Wallonne comes midweek with the annual showdown on the Mur de Huy. The men's race was first held in 1936 and the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:women's La Flèche Wallonne in 1998, and the winner invariably comes from a large group splinte♔ring into pieces on the steep climb in Huy.

The oldest of the Classics, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Liège-Bastogne-Liège was first held in 1892. The 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:women's Liège-Bastog🐠ne-Liège was set up by Tour de Fra♒nce organisers ASO in 2017. 

The races start and finishes in Li&🌟egrave;ge, heading south to Bastogne before returning back. A previous finale in Ans became too predictable so organisers moved the fꦚinish back to Liège.
