Kuurne-Brussels-Kuurne 2015 start list
Provisional list of starters for the 2015 edition of Kuurne-Brussels-Kuurne on Sunday, March 1
Sunday's Kuurne-Brussels-Kuurne features a line-up of Classics riders and bunch sprinters, with many teams fielding riders of both categories to cover any eventuality.
Last year's winner Tom Boonen (Etixx-QuickStep) returns to the race, wearing the number one plate. He is accompanied by a typically strong Etixx line-up that also includes British sprinter Mark Cavendish.
Cavendish is one of a number of Brits in the race, which also includes Bradley Wiggins, Ian Stannard, Luke Rowe and Andy Fenn in Sky's line-up; Scott Thwaites (Bora-Argon 18); Dan McLay (Bretagne); and Alistair Slater (AN Post).
NB: Rider names are listed as surname/forename. Some rosters may be subject to change.

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.
