Liege-Bastogne-Liege stay protection | Cyclingnews

Liège-Bastogne-Liège, the oldest Monument, heralds the end of the classics season. The peloton will tackle a route of 257 kilometres containing 4,500 metres of climbing–comparable to a mountainous stage of a Grand Tour. Unlike those stages, the difficulty of Liège comes not from long mountain passes but a seemingly endless catalogue of short, steep climbs.

The peloton is rolling out from the start line in Liège under sunny April skies for the last race of the classics season.
