On the 22nd and 26th of April the riders will take on the Liège-Bastogne-Liège, the final two of the Ardennes classics. Here is when and where to watch the races live and on TV, including in the USA and UK.
As always, you can always follow the races on CyclingUpToDate with our full coverage of the race, which will includes recaps, previews, rider quotes and Liveblogs.
The race was created in 1892, hence why it's called La Doyenne - The oldest. Léon Houa won its first three editions, and then the race took two extensive break periods - the second of which due to World War I. It is a race that has also been won by some of Belgium's very best such as Rik van Looy, Eddy Merckx, Roger de Vlaeminck, Philippe Gilbert and Remco Evenepoel.
Within this century others such as Alejandro Valverde, Andy Schleck and Primoz Roglic have also won. It used to be an open race, currently less so. The past two editions have been won by Tadej Pogacar, taking uncontested solo wins with attacks on La Redoute.

- You have never raced. Pathetic nut-rider.
MarkFour26-04-2026 - 1. Many people in this comment section claim he was purely the product of drugs. Scroll up, scroll down, and read. I don't think much of people who are too lazy to do that.. 2. Lemond and Indurain (and many, many other riders of that generation) have serious health issues. If you have ever met or chatted with any of these guys or made any observations beyond casually participating in unmoderated comments, you would know that. 3. Fignon said he thought his cancer was due to some of the things he had taken as an athlete. How dare you? You are really, truly, beyond redemption. I won't dignify your other assertions, as they aren't serious. Best of luck.MarkFour26-04-2026
- I feel like Jens is forgetting that remco in 2024 was even closer time wise and still came 3rd in le tour. Lipo may take the lead this tour but to think that he's only 2% behind pog is laughable.bruins3026-04-2026
- Yes, and we don't even know how far the other stuff went. There were whispers that he went tattling to the UCI when Tyler Hamilton and Iban Mayo started looking like real rivals. Not saying he did or didn't, but we may not know or ever know the whole story.megasmacky26-04-2026

- I've never dared to say I wouldn't have doped if I'd become a pro rider. If I was a promising neo pro at my first pre-season training camp, and the DS sat me down and gave me the truth about what's required to win a big race, I suspect I'd have been all in. "Hey, I heard the dope works better if you inject it with a giant needle into the scrotum, here you go! Oh, in the eyeball, sure no problem!" They say that two wrongs don't make a right, but sometimes, 200 wrongs make things seem, well, a little less wrong. If that DS had said that everybody's doing it, that would have been all I needed to go all in on the gear and sleep like a baby, conscience clear. If you weren't a pro rider, all you can say is you hope you'd do the right thing and stay clean. Otherwise, you don't know. Was it fair that Armstrong was singled out for punishment? Not totally, but that the deal when you're the big dog. You're going to get all the attention, positive or not. As much as I don't like the guy, I'll admit that Armstrong's commitment to continuing a rabid obsession with fitness is pretty impressive. I'm confident I've never seen a near 60 yr old at his level of fitness. If it makes him happy or fulfilled, more power to him. There've been riders in the past(cough, Wilfried Peeters, cough) who probably bought a pack of smokes and a dozen Big Macs on the way to their retirement presser, couldn't wait to get off the damn treadmill and grow their waistline. To each his own.megasmacky26-04-2026

- Wow, you really don't think much of your fellow readers do you? Trying to pass off this nonsense. First of all, nobody said he came from nowhere. He was obviously wildly talented, and that was clear, as you say, long before he was a pro. What is undeniably true is he came from nowhere as a GC candidate in GTs. He had virtually no GC resume before he finished 4th in the 98 Vuelta. He'd never come even close to a good GC finish before that. He was absolutely stomped in the TT's by Indurain in his first two Tours. He'd never won or come close to winning a mtn stage. He said himself many times, in his early career, in a commendable display of honesty, that he was not that sort of rider. There's never been a GT champion in modern history with anything like his lack of GC credentials. GC riders look like GC riders from their first years racing. They win junior staqe races, they win the Baby Giro or the Tour de L'Avenir, whatever. Saying that he would have won the Tour if all were clean is absurd, backed by zero evidence. He wouldn't have even come close. If another rider said he would, and I doubt they did, you certainly do nothing to back up this claim, they said it because riders knew that angering Armstrong was a bad idea. They were humouring him. Also, guys like Lemond and Indurain look worse than him because they decided that Armstrong's almost freakish obsession with remaining hyper fit wasn't for them. Indurain likes tinkering with old tractors, and doesn't seem to give a toss about the sport at all. Lemond has had health issues and accidents that didn't have any clear connection with his cycling career. Oh, and Fignon died of cancer, you d*ck.megasmacky26-04-2026
