A Sunday in Hell
Leige – Bastogne – Leige

The Route and sectors
50 miles of hell. Sectors of gravé (gravel) and pavé (cobbles) will abound in our 6th annual L’enfer

Join you Clarion pals on a homage to the Paris Roubaix and the other spring classics as we seek out the cobbles and rough tracks of Saddleworth, a shout of ‘Boonen!’, ‘Museeuw!’, ‘Merckx’ or ‘Cancellara!’ is traditional as we hit every cobbled section.
