In time, however, Troch had to drop out with stomach problems, while Van Goetsenhoven could no longer continue. Seye continued alone …

… But he also had to stop eventually. After 758 kilometers, he put his bicycle aside.

Cause? Seat problems. The promising rider explained that in a video on the Twitter page of BEAT Cycling. “I tried cycling around Belgium,” said the visibly tired Seye. “It was a tough night, but I kept on eating. But in the end I had to decide to stop the challenge. It was unfortunate because the legs were still good. I still saw it all sitting, but sorry for the bottom. I did have fun. ”

“I had to stop my trip on Saturday evening. This was not an easy decision since I had worked hard here, ”Troch wrote on Instagram. “Persistent stomach and intestinal complaints and headaches have caused me to make my decision. I would like to thank everyone for giving me the opportunity to try to realize this dream. A few more challenges soon and next year: I’ll be back, borders of Belgium.”
