    Well done @falconwood_1 am sharing with a few cycling fan mates as well. Worth watching the Eurosport spoof attached for a bit of a laugh :smile:

    TV coverage now on Eurosport 1. If you have never seen one of the Belgian classics it's worth a look. 136 Kms to go, the First ascent of the Paterberg is at 52 Kms to go. It's worth tuning in to see the ascent of the Ould Kwaremont at 55km to go. The Koppenberg after the Paterberg at 45km to go is brutal.

    Yeah, and according to today's papers, every other sport is at it as well.

    Frantic activity in SE7 as Charlton dispatch a crack squad of stewards to try to get the banner removed before the cyclists arrive ...

    Race is ahead of schedule. Just going over the Ould Kwaremont, the Paterberg is next for the first time. Fingers crossed for a sighting just after the leaders come off the top of the climb.

    Belgian tv just cut away before Sagan passed the banner. I wouldn't be surprised if the director was aware of it and deliberately cut away.

    Still, plenty of photos to come from Twitter and Liege-Bastogne-Liege to come in three weeks time. Who knows what might happen there, with the race passing the front door of Standard Liege. Someone send Roly one of those stress-balls.

    Would be good to get some banners & posters made up in Flemish & French.
