The Flèche Wallone

The first classic is Flèche Wallone, and we cycle over to Huy to be at the top of the Mur. This is an intimidating 1.2km long climb, which at one point ramps up to 26% (or 1 in 4). The women's race starts at the top and has two circuits with 2 climbs up the Mur where it finishes. The men's race starts to the north at Wallome, and ends with 3 circuits decreasing in size with 3 ascents of the Mur where it too finishes.
