Since Paul Seixas burst onto the scene, we've been waiting for him to showdown with Tadej and Liege did not disappoint! Listen for a full summary and analysis of the Ardennes classics for men and women.
A little more drama than I'd have preferred today. You want to see a cleaner experience for the leaders, but that's part of the charm at this event and it still came down to the right leaders. Analysis of the men and women today.

Some surprises and some not-no-surprised, but a great edition of a classic race, with Tadej, MVDP, Wout, Remco, Mads Pedersen, Demi Vollering, Puck Pieterse, and Pauline Ferrand-Prevot all putting on a good show in Belgium.

We've had lots of interactions over the years between fans and pro riders (to varying degrees of disaster), from training rides, to during races, to hotels in the middle of the night. As a rider, a fan, and a resident of Los Angeles where I've seen a lot of celebrity interactions I've seen and been on all sides of this, and thought it would be worthwhile to discuss where the line is for fans, as well as common sense best practices for pros.

The classics have begun! This is great race because it can be won by any kind of rider (climber, sprinter, late attacks). This year did not disappoint! One of my favorite editions with amazing performances and a great nailbiter finish.
