Belgian 3 days

Last week the Belgian 3 days took place in the south of the country. The sunny weather, nice maps and almost 1000 competitors made this event very nice and interesting. In class H21E Fabien Pasquasy was outstanding, he won every stage (including the long distance world ranking event). The Frenchman Johann Tinchant finished in 2nd position ahead of Thomas van der Kleij (3rd).
