On March 1, 2026, the 78th edition of the Kuurne–Brussels–Kuurne cycling race, category 1.Pro, is taking place. The men's elite start in Kortrijk and finish in Kuurne. Participants must cover a distance of 196.9 kilometers across the challenging roads of Belgium. The route includes cobblestone sections and the steep climbs of the Flemish hills.

Cyclists are battling for victory in one of the most important spring starts. This competition demands ultimate endurance and skill from the athletes.

Jasper Philipsen's triumph last year sets a high bar for the new participants.
