Many spectators today at the BK Meulebeke, which is also a big boost for the organization after an edition without an audience due to corona measures. Today the beer is flowing and the bratwurst stalls are running at full capacity. There are more than 12,000 people along the route.
“I think this is the max. Just drink beers in a tent and watch the cross country. That is our life,” said an onlooker. Milan Vandommele and Siebren Callens are also thoroughly enjoying the atmosphere: “You don’t know who will win. I think this year it will be special. The atmosphere is good. It will be a top edition.”
