Performances
Presentation about the Tour by Geert Vandenbon
Geert Vandenbon speaks from his experience in the belly of the Tour of Flanders. Between 1987 and 2009 he collaborated intensively on almost all facets of the organization, the expansion and the image of Flanders' Mooiste. He is publisher of cycling books (including about the Ronde and founder Karel van Wijnendaele), co-author of several works about the Ronde and co-founder of the Center Tour of Flanders. He also tours Flanders with Day & Night Course!, a cycling program with Michel Wuyts.
Aided by wonderful archive photos and unique documents, he delves deep into the distant and recent past and looks to the future of the Tour. He bombards the viewer with stories, information, images, anecdotes and… humor.
Narration 'Mister Deman' by Jurgen Creyf
"If I give Paul Deman as the probable winner, it is only because the little Reckhem is extremely smart and can put his foot next to the best in the final sprint."
The full story of this heroic cyclist can be discovered from September at the Center Tour of Flanders. Jurgen Creyf, cycling-loving storyteller at Racing Letterbeek, takes you half an hour on a trail through the wonderful life of the first Tour winner.
