Nokere–KoerseNokere Koerse

  • This is not a race from Nokere TO Koerse as the dash in the name invokes, but the "Nokere Race" ("de koerse" is (dialect) Flemish for "the race"). The name is different from the very common FROM-TO cycling race names, and I presume it appeared (only in the English wiki btw) by someone who wasn't aware of it and assumed this was like Paris-Nice, Tirreno-Adriatico, etc. But it's like the "Tour de France", the "Nokere Race", so no dashes. http://www.nokerekoerse.be/ MinksterWiki (talk) 23:36, 19 March 2010 (UTC)Reply
  • Probably a mistake in English because of how the UCI write it (i.e. as Nokere-Koerse, and possibly the UCI don't know what is correct either). SeveroTC 00:14, 20 March 2010 (UTC)Reply
  • The form with the dash may be correct usage in Flemish. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 22:10, 28 March 2010 (UTC)Reply
