Dwars Door Het Hageland 2021 [FULL RACE]

June 5, 2021

Dwars Door Het Hageland 2021 – Aarschot – Diest : 177 km

At just 20-years-old, Dwars door het Hageland is one of the youngest Belgian one-day races on the international cycling calendar. Its first edition, back in 2001, was largely contested by semi-professional and domestic teams and it wasn’t until 2016 – when it was eventually upgraded to a 1.1 event – that it started to draw in bigger, more established WorldTour teams. Since then the race has managed to find its own little niche on the Belgian Classics calendar and as it falls in late June, it offers a welcome return to the gritty and action-packed style of racing that often takes a back seat during Grand Tour season. The race has number of dicey gravel sections thrown in between short, sharp climbs and bone-rattling sectors of cobblestones. These gravel and cobblestone sectors fall throughout the race, rather than just near the end, and so catalyse an aggressive race from start to finish. Attacks fly throughout the race and it’s rare that we see a large group contest the finish in the town of Diest. More often than not the race is won by a solo rider, or a small group of three to four individuals that have been brave enough to throw caution to the wind and attack on one of the route’s decisive gravel sectors.
