I'll give this a review shortly. Wizardman 14:20, 24 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Wasn't able to get to the prose tonight, but the images and references all check out, as does a copyvio check. Wizardman 02:17, 26 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Here's what I found:

"although the route passed through Kanegem and Aarsele as a tribute to Briek Schotte and Roger Decock (the oldest living winner of the Tour of Flanders) respectively.[4]" respectively doesn't seem necessary here, rm
- I've changed this to "Kanegem and Aarsele in tribute to ... respectively", as Kanegem is in tribute to Schotte and Aarsele to Decock. Relentlessly (talk) 08:20, 3 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  - Gotcha; reading it that way makes more sense, somehow my brain didn't watch Kanegem to Schotte and Aarsele to Decock the first time. Wizardman 21:37, 4 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
"An additional seven UCI Professional Continental teams were given wildcard entries. These included two Belgian teams..." the included part can probably be removed; as is it's implied some are excluded but you list every team here. Try this: "An additional seven UCI Professional Continental teams were given wildcard entries: two Belgian teams..."
- Yeah, fair point. Relentlessly (talk) 08:20, 3 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
"Tony Martin (Etixx–Quick-Step) pulled a 25-man group clear, but they were recaptured shortly afterwards." I read this a few times and I only kind of think I got what it's trying to say; try rewording.
- Done. Relentlessly (talk) 08:20, 3 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
"followed by Dmitriy Gruzdev (Astana) and Dimitri Claeys (Wanty–Groupe Gobert." missing a )
- Done. Relentlessly (talk) 08:20, 3 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
" Meanwhile, Vandenbergh and Van Baarle made contact with the group of leaders" to me, 'made contact' seems like an odd word choice here.
- I can see it's idiomatic to cycling. I've changed it. Relentlessly (talk) 08:20, 3 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Overall pretty good; cycling isn't my strong suit but I was mostly able to follow the race without issue. I'll put the article on hold and will pass when fixed. Wizardman 21:30, 27 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Many thanks, Wizardman. I think I've covered everything. Relentlessly (talk) 08:20, 3 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Everything looks good now, so I'll go ahead and pass the article. Wizardman 21:37, 4 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
