Björn Leukemans

This Belgian is an important trump card for the spring. You can set the clock by Björn Leukemans; he will be there in April. Last year this resulted in seventh places in the Tour of Flanders and the Amstel Gold Race and a ninth place in Luik-Bastenaken-Luik. In Paris-Roubaix he came thirteenth after 3 falls and 2 flat tyres, one of which occurred in the last three kilometres. The man from the village of Bevel also rode some of this race on the bike of team mate Bozic. After the spring the ambitions of this guy from Flanders did not stop. He won the Druivenkoers Overijse for the second year and also was honoured as a stage winner and overall winner of the Tour du Limousin. In 2012 his first peak will also be in the early spring. Leukemans will be focussed on doing even better than in the previous years and to this end to claim a podium place in one of the major spring classics. Winning one of these races is one of his dreams..
