An ode to Alberic 'Briek' Schotte, the godfather of all flandriens.

This set of photos provides an intimate and emotional portrait of these legendary athletes, landscapes and the Flemish culture. Stephan Vanfleteren has been photographing cycling races in Belgium and its surrounding areas for more than 15 years already.
With more than 100 images, carefully selected by photographer Stephan Vanfleteren.
