Good for you! Should be a lot of boonen fanatics there! If it was me I
would steer clear of the popular climbs such as the Muur, bosberg and
the Berendries and maybe go for one of the climbs just before it.
Valkenburg or Tenbosse.
However Flanders is one of those courses where a mate called Colin
Macrae would be handy, as you could rally drive round some back roads
and tracks and see this race several times.
Have fun, and try and get some photos for the group :)
