The Spring Classics wrap up with Liège-Bastogne-Liège on Sunday, and the riders who will toe the line in La Doyenne stretched their legs on one of the most decisive climbs of the race, La Redoute, in training today.
The storied ascent has been the site of many race-winning attacks, and it's quite possible that one of the gentlemen pictured in our gallery felt a special lightness - the perfect blend of fitness and freshness - that will propel them to victory here on Sunday.
Can you tell from these photos who is feeling tranquillo and who might be concerned that they won't be able to follow the moves when the hammer drops?
