A kermesse (also sometimes written as kermese or kermis) is your standard race for a cyclist in Belgium. In Belgium racing is pretty much summed up into two categories, Elites with contract (professional) and Elites without contract (amateur).

The American former pro rider Joe Parkin, meanwhile, takes a slightly different definition. In his book, A Dog in a Hat, which looks back on his career in Europe in the late 1980s, Parkin simply writes, “If the Grand Tours are like classical music, kermesse racing is punk rock, Belgian style.”
Road race, criterium, kermesse – what’s the difference?
https://bgradecyclist.com/racing/road-race-criterium-kermesse-difference/
A kermesse is a circuit race on a course that’s longer than that of a criterium, but shorter than that of a road race: usually 3-8 kilometres per lap. At elite level, they typically last between one and two hours – again, longer than a criterium, but shorter than a full road race.

The race began in usual Kermesse style - flat out from the gun. I was feeling good so got up to the front and joined in the fun. I attacked a lot - I could see it was going to be won from a break so tried to get into every one I could. I managed to get away solo for a lap or so but Remko (the winner of KBK last week) wasn’t having any of it.

In his book, A Dog in a Hat, which looks back on his career in Europe in the late 1980s, Parkin simply writes, “If the Grand Tours are like classical music, kermesse racing is punk rock, Belgian style.” Distances vary with a typical pro kermesse race around 120km in length, traditionally raced over a circuit of 10km or so. Why 10km?
