It’s quite amazing, this race dates as far back as the Stand Up Magazin and is one of the longest standing races in Europe if not even world wide. Here are the results from 2012.
In the recent years the Namur City Race has been regularly part of the EURO TOUR and looks like it was a full success again this year. Unfortunately there was a scheduling conflict with a big race in Germany because usually we have quite a bit of a German turn out in Belgium.
On the women side Cecilia Pampinella broke the pack and controlled the the group from start to finish but only won by 4 seconds ahead of Petronella Van Malsen and 12 seconds in front of Swiss Anna Tschirky.
On the men side it was Bruno Hasulyo who set the pace from the start and much like last year broke the pack on the first leg for his unprecedented 3rd win at the event. He was almost a minute faster than Donato Freens who had a battle between 2nd and 3rd with Fernando Perez Serra from Spain.
