Dwars door Vlaanderen (English: Across Flanders) is a Flanders Classics road bicycle race which as from 2013 will count as a 1.HC event on the UCI Europe Tour. Traditionally it is the start of the Flemish cycling week with Gent–Wevelgem (before 2010 the Brabantse Pijl instead of Gent–Wevelgem) the Three Days of De Panne and the Tour of Flanders. Dwars door Vlaanderen has always been contested on a Wednesday a week and a half before the Tour of Flanders. The finish is always in Waregem.
