So Spring is over then. After 8 weeks of breathless single-day race action, it’s almost time to knuckle down for the long-haul of the first Grand Tour of the season, but the Classics have given us a tantalising glimpse of what we might expect should the stars align in July and beyond. Join Chris, David and Gary to look back at a Spring to remember.

📸 While the men’s Liege-Bastogne-Liege first took place in 1892, it only took another 125 years before the inaugural women’s race was held. Anna van der Breggen’s victory in 2017 saw her make history, completing an unprecedented Ardennes treble after taking Amstel Gold and La Flèche Wallone in the preceding week.
