It may only be mid-November but Wout van Aert and Jumbo-Visma are already exploring the routes of the 2024 cobbled Classics, including that of the Tour of Flanders.

The Belgian, who will once again be taking aim at his first cobbled Monument victory next April, was joined by several teammates as he hit the Belgian roads in preparation for next season's spring Classics.
