More info

The championship of Belgium is an annual cycling race where the riders try to win the national title. The championship is organized in different categories. The winner, the champion of Belgium, may wear the Belgian tricolore jersey throughout the year during the races of the respective category.

There are several categories, but the one with the longest and most beautiful list of winners is that of the men elite. To be able to participate in this race there are 3 conditions. Only riders with the Belgian nationality, who are at least 23 years old, and who are a member of a professional cycling team are allowed to ride most of the races. Until 1995 this race for the national title was known as the Belgian Championship for Pros. After that it was renamed to men's elite with contract.

The Belgian Road Championship has been ridden for more than 100 years. The very first winner in 1894 was Léon Houa.

The rider with the most victories is Tom Steels. He became Belgian Champion 4 times. Stijn Devolder and Rik Van Steenbergen each won 3 times. A list of others including Roger De Vlaeminck, Johan Museeuw, Rik Van Looy, Tom Boonen, Wilfried Nelissen, Walter Godefroot, Philippe Gilbert and Michel Pollentier managed to win the race 2 times. The oldest Belgian champion was Niko Eeckhout. In 2006 he won in Antwerp at the age of 37.
