2013 Li¨ge-Bastogne-Li¨ge The Breakthrough Win! Time gone by, the fans used to scoff at the idea that victory in a major Classic like Li¨ge-Bastogne-Li¨ge was possible for cycling's younger pros. And disagreement with the belief that a Monument, one of cycling's top five one-day races, could only be mastered by an elite well-known group of hardened Classic specialists would be met with knowing, superior, smirks. After 2013, no longer. Young Irishman Dan Martin's spectacular breakthrough win in Li¨ge-Bastogne-Li¨ge for American squad Garmin-Sharp confirmed that a new, smart, clean generation of Classics riders is here to stay. This DVD reveals key moments of one of the most pivotal breakthroughs in Classics racing of recent years. 2013 Fl¨che Wallonne Lessons from the Master! With 2012 Fl¨che Wallonne winner Joaquim Rodriguez injured just days before the race, Russian squad Katusha face impending disaster in one of the key Spring Classics. That is unless they find a new leader, of course, in record time.... Step forward Rodriguez's confidante, teammate, roommate and long-term friend Dani Moreno. For three long, frantic days before the race as they wait in the team hotel, Moreno, a 33 year-old Spaniard who has never won a major Classic, is given intense master-classes by the injured Rodriguez on how to take on and triumph in the hardest Fl¨che Wallonne. But will that be enough to tip the balance?
