The team took part in Memorial Philippe van Coningsloo. A Belgium Topcompetion race for u26 riders. The race had some climbs and some cobbles. Pol had a good result again, he got 12th, after attacking the break of 14 he was in. Also the other riders finished the race.
Xing Yan Dong has been struggeling with agressive and technical riding style in the races here over the past weeks, but managed to deal well with the cobbles, twisting and turns this time. A very important development for him!
Hisanori and new team rider Brad White also finsihed the 180km well in their European debut.
Loh attacked a lot, but made a wrong choice on a stretch of cobbles in the final and landed in the back.

The team is now off to Circuito Montanes in Spain.
