Brugge - Oudenaarde 255km
If you don't know how great today is going to be I feel like it's too late to explain it. This is the Ronde van Vlaanderen, the only race you need to see this year.
Sporza go live from the sign-in in Brugge at 09:30 CEST (and then take a break for a few hours after the start)
This year you should also be able to see the finale of the women's race here (Silverlight needed) at 13:45 CEST.
Lion of Flanders of the Day: Peter Sagan
Rainbows top old guy(s) wanting to go out with a bang any day of the week.
