The Belgian Track Cycling Championships are a series of competitions to determine who will become Belgian champion in the different parts of track cycling.[1]
Nowadays, the championships are always held at the Flemish Cycling Center Eddy Merckx, one of the two official 250m Olympic tracks in Belgium.[2][3]
History
Since the first half of the 1900s, national-level track cycling trials were organized, initially limited to speed and pursuit only, then open to various track cycling specialties.[4] Among the multi-titled professionals of these events, Patrick Sercu holds the record with 30 national titles, followed by Kenny De Ketele (22), Jef Scherens (15) and Rik Van Steenbergen (12).[5][6]
