Jolien D'hoore (Mitchelton-Scott) won an incident-filled 2018 edition of the women's Driedaagse De Panne-Koksijde in Belgium on Thursday.

The Belgian road race champion took the bunch sprint, but had to check with other riders after crossing the line that she had actually won, as she thought a remnant of the day's break had got there first.

Nigel Wynn
Former Associate Editor

Nigel Wynn worked as associate editor on CyclingWeekly.com, he worked almost single-handedly on the Cycling Weekly website in its early days. His passion for cycling, his writing and his creativity, as well as his hard work and dedication, were the original driving force behind the website’s success. Without him, CyclingWeekly.com would certainly not exist on the size and scale that it enjoys today. Nigel sadly passed away, following a brave battle with a cancer-related illness, in 2018. He was a highly valued colleague, and more importantly, an exceptional person to work with - his presence is sorely missed.
