Cycling fans will be treated to a spectacle as the peloton barrel over the cobblestone ascents deep into the final of the Tour of Flanders on April 2 in Belgium.

The famed back-to-back Oude Kwaremont and Paterberg before the run-in to Oudenaarde will be the prime locations to watch the world-class peloton contest for the win during the 20th edition of the Tour of Flanders.
