Has anyone done the liege bastogne liege course immediately prior to or after the race? I'm going this year (first time at a major european road race) and want to ride the course, and watch the race. So wondering:
Is there a formal sportive the day before? does it require some sort of registration or otherwise, or can anyone just roll out with a course map and ride the course? (or would ther ebe problems doing so, e.g. closures?) Would we be better off (or is it possible) riding the course the day after (assuming the day before weather was bad).
Does anyone have any thoughts on a few good spots to watch the race, strategieis for maximmising seeing the bunch, or similar? We will have a car, and staying in Esneux.
many thanks
