Devolder with opportunity to prove himself at Dwars door Vlaanderen

RadioShack-Leopard's directeur sportif Dirk Demol believes that Stijn Devolder can return to the big leagues and rediscover the form that saw him win back to back Tour of Flanders titles in 2008 and 2009. Demol was Devolder's directeur for several years at US Postal and QuickStep, and after Devolder returned to ride under Demol's wing this winter, he will be given a chance to ride for himself in Wednesday's Dwars door Vlaanderen.
