 For several years the race was run as part of the UCI’s calendar, with a fixed spot for the coming spring.It has gained the nickname "A spring day at the heath" ("En Forårsdag på heden") with the hidden hint to Jørgen Leth's film on Paris-Roubaix, "A Sunday in Hell" ("En Forårsdag i Helede").The race has had multiple economic problems and was not held in 2008.
