    Pro cycling on TV

    Pro cycling race Fleche Wallone will be shown on Sunday 4/25 from 2 pm to 3 pm on Versus. The broadcast will be repeated on Tuesday 4/27 at 4 pm. The only American to win this race was Lance Armstrong in 1996.

    Pro cycling race Liege Bastogne Liege will be shown on Versus on 5/1 at 2 pm. It is the oldest of the Classics dating back to 1892 and one way is about 57 miles and a less direct route on the return is about 97 miles. The only American to win was Tyler Hamilton.

    Only six racers, including Eddie Merckx, have won both races the same year. Contador will compete this year and is hopeful to become number seven.

    The Tour de Romandie will be shown on Versus on Monday 5/3 at 12:20 am ( yes, that's AM) and repeated at 4 pm.
