I was thinking of taking my girlfriend to LMNH to watch LBL. Anyone else watched any of the classics here and is it good? My girlfriend thinks its great cos apparently they have a house beer called 'slag'. Are there any other good cycling-on-tv places in London that people know about?

    I saw the Zoncalon last year there.

    Was fine - as you'd expect. Not the most cosy, but is pretty good. Feels a bit strange in the weekend since it's kinda in the City.

    Well it's right by old street station - lots of offices etc about.

    So the whole area is pretty dead in the weekend.

    With the exception of LMNH.

    Rick you have your keyboard on just about every thread............

    Anyone know if they showed Flanders and Roubaix?

    I passed a couple of ladies in LMNH kit when I was out the day before Flanders and they werent so sure but thought it would be.

    It says they did on their 'what's on' calendar, but there's no entry for LBL...

    With the amount of free publicity they get on this forum they should hand deliver a personal note telling you of their TV intentions :)

    There's a new cycling place open in Crystal Palace at the top of Anerly Hill. They have a cafe and suspect they'll be showing the race there. Can't think of its name now but might be one to try if you're in south London.

    Ah yes, may be worth a look. I'll stop there on my way back today. It looks very clinical from the outside...
