Eddy Planckaert is the brother of fellow cyclists Willy and Walter Planckaert . Eddy is also the uncle of Jo Planckaert and the father of Francesco Planckaert . More than 10 years after his cycling career, the former racer got back into the public eye with a long running reality TV show about his family life, on Vtm .
Cobble stone memorizing Planckaert's 1990 win in Paris–Roubaix After the 2016 Paris–Roubaix , Planckaert declared that second-placed Tom Boonen should have made a deal with eventual winner Mathew Hayman in order to fix the race and let Boonen win.[ 3]
