Watching the classics
Hi,
I have the first week of Easter off and need to decide which race to take the family to see. I think paris roubaix is the first weekend possible and Amstel being the second.
I am quite keen on Paris roubaix as I think we will see the race a couple of times. The downside is it is great watching on TV.
Amstel would be good, we know the area having been the world championships there so it is easier for the kids.
Appreciate anyone's thoughts / comments.
