European Continental Championships 2024 🇧🇪 MU23 – ITT(CC) – Heusden-Zolder – Hasselt : 31,3 km
The 2024 European Road Cycling Championships will be the 30th running of the European Road Cycling Championships, schedule to take place from 11 to 15 September 2024 in the province of Limburg, Belgium. The event will consist of a total of 6 road races, 6 time trials, and 2 relays
Alec Segaert successfully defended his European U23 men’s time trial title on home ground in Hasselt. The 21-year-old Belgian tackled the 31.3km course in a time of 35:06 to retake the gold medal he won in the Dutch town of Emmen last year.
He beat out Sweden’s Jakob Söderqvist by 31 seconds while Dutchman Wessel Mouris – the older brother of newly crowned junior European time trial champion Michiel – claimed bronze a further four seconds back.
Segaert, who this year turned professional with Lotto-Dstny, can add his victory here to a plethora of time trial wins at junior and U23 level. He has now won the European U23 time trial three times in a row having won the junior title back in 2021.
Last month, Segaert took his first pro win, beating Magnus Sheffield in the time trial at the Renewi Tour.
