INTRODUCTION
DISCOVER THE SPRING CLASSICS IN A TRULY UNIQUE WAY
The Tour of Flanders (“De Ronde”) and Paris-Roubaix are two of cycling’s most revered one-day races, renowned for their brutal challenges and historical significance. Flanders, with its relentless succession of steep, cobbled climbs (“bergs”), tests riders’ power and positioning. Paris-Roubaix, famously known as the “Hell of the North,” subjects cyclists to punishing stretches of ancient cobblestones (“pavé”), demanding exceptional resilience and bike-handling skills. Both races are iconic monuments of cycling, where legends are forged amidst the pain and glory of these uniquely demanding routes.
