REPORTING. Looking for the Remcoorts in Schepdaal: “Keep calm, everyone says. But I did provide some extra barrels of beer just to be sure”

3 more stages and a show ride in Madrid. 10 more cols and 2 arrivals at the top. That is what Remco Evenepoel still has to overcome before he becomes the first Belgian in 44 years to win another Grand Tour. But although the tension can be cut, the hype in race-crazy Flanders is not forthcoming for the time being. Or is there something like Remcoorts emerging in his village of Schepdaal?
