Nokere Koerse
Nokere Koerse is a European semi classic single day cycle race held in the Belgian region of Flanders. From 2005 to 2015, the race was organized as a 1.1 event on the UCI Europe Tour, and starting in 2016 it was upgraded to a 1.HC event. In 2020, the race became part of the UCI ProSeries. The Nokere Koerse was created in 1944, initially as the Grand Prix Jules Lowie in honour of 1938 Paris–Nice winner Jules Lowie who was born in Nokere. Only seven cyclists not born in Belgium or the Netherlands have won this semi classic. There was no edition in 2013 due to bad winter weather. Since 2019, a women's edition of Nokere Koerse is held on the same day as the men's race, starting and finishing in the same location. Winners (men)
