Professional women's teams
On 1 April 2018, the 15th Tour of Flanders for Women was run. It started and finished in Oudenaarde, with an identical route to the men's race, covering 153.3 kilometres (95.3 miles). The race was won by Olympic champion Anna van der Breggen (Boels–Dolmans) after a 27-kilometre (17 mi) solo attack on the top of the Kruisberg. A crash just before the Muur van Geraardsbergen split the peloton early in the race. A select group of riders made a further gap on the Kruisberg, after which van der Breggen made her decisive move. She increased her lead on the Oude Kwaremont and Paterberg and maintained her effort to claim her first Tour of Flanders victory.[1] Amy Pieters and Annemiek van Vleuten completed the entirely Dutch podium.[2]
