edited June 2011 in Pro race
A five day race in Luxembourg always interesting to follow, as many of its winners turn pro during the next season.
A technical prologue and a really hard stage on sunday.

The stages: http://www.fleche-du-sud.lu/Infos.html

Past winners: http://www.fleche-du-sud.lu/Historique.html

Having grown up in exactly this region, i always liked to follow the young guys from luxembourg (this year: Bob Jungels), and strong contenders for the overall vicory usually from denmark, germany and the usa. many racers from english speaking countrys, so perhaps some of you might be interested in this race too.

    A very hard stage through the ardennes today

    Stage 3:
    1. Lasse Bochmann (Den)
    2. Harald Totschnig (Aut)
    3. Clément Lhotellerie (Fra)
    4. Bob Jungels (Lux)

    GC:
    1. Lasse Bochmann
    2. Harald Totschnig
    3. Bob Jungels

    Bochmann won the Flèche du Sud GC last year. As tomorrow will problably be for the sprinters, he should be able to defend last years title. Good result for Jungels too, who is the youngest guy in the race.
