Liège-Bastogne-Liège - SPOILER

[Keith Oates]

So, who is going to take the final podium of this classics week. There seems to be so many who are doing well and showing form but for me I think I'll stay with Valverde, as he seems to be trying hard to get one race in the bag during this part of the season!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I agree Valverde will be trying extra hard - but both Schlecks are down to start, and my outside bet is Columbia's Thomas Lövkvist...

No treble this year for Rebellin but I think he has a good chance of doing the double, so its come on Tintin.

Nice to see Frank Schleck making a return after that awful crash in the Gold Cup last week.

Not on Eurosport till later !

5.00 Yenners unless you can get Analogue Eurosport in which case you can watch it live.

Well, it looks like the Schleck brothers are controlling this one - Andy out on his own with a late solo break, and Frank minding the chasing group.

 

[Flying_Monkey]

... and Andy duly takes it.

 

[mondobongo]

Good win by Andy it looked like he was grinning 20 kms out. Pretty amazed that the others teams allowed him to go.

 

[Keith Oates]

It seems that the other teams could not get a concerted chase going, good win for Andy though and he will now feel happy at the start of this cycling year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[stumpy]

What are the odds on one of the Schleck's taking the TdF or Giro????

 

[Keith Oates]

Anything is possible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
