La Doyenne

Liège-Bastogne-Liège, the last of the Spring Classics.  258 km - the oldest and toughest of the spring classics.  The famous Côte de la Redoute (8.4%) and the final Côte Saint-Nicholas (11%) are leg breakers and should produce the final selection.

I was very surprised that Cadel Evans was able to go around Alberto Contador on the Mur de Huy at Fleche-Wallonne.  Although that clearly says that Cadel is in exceptional form (and that Contador went too soon), I am suspecting that Schleck brothers may have another one-two punch up their sleeve today.  If not, Phillipe Gilbert was in sparkling good form winning the Amstel Gold race two weeks ago.

I'm going with Andy Schleck to repeat last years win.
