Tom Van Asbroeck won the second edition of our race. After nearly 170 kilometres of racing, he was fastest in Roeselare before Wouter Wippert and Baptiste Planckaert.
Stijn Devolder showed off his national champion's jersey at the start. The Belgian champion himself was not part of the breakaway of 15 riders including Jens Keukeleire, Preben Van Hecke, Wouter Wippert , Kevin Peeters and Baptiste Planckaert. It was those five who made an ultimate effort to win, but they never got out of the reach of the other riders. In the final straight, 22-year-old Tom Van Asbroeck still managed to steam through on and over Wippert and Planckaert, taking a fine victory.
