Liege -Bastogne - Liege Sportive?

 Simon Grogan writes "  I have been looking into doing one of the Spring Classics challenges but went off line for a week and now its getting a bit late especially for the Paris-Roubaix. I would go with Trevor but I do want to enter the challenge (sportive event) the day before the race  and now all the shuttles are fully booked,  so maybe next year on that one. 
Looking around I found the Cyclosport review of Liege-Bastogne-Liege ,its well worth a look. It's the day before the race proper, 20th April, with most of the riders entering on the day. Entry is 20 euros for the 80k ride, 25 for 155k and 30 for the full 270k.There are 5 feed stations,  free insurance, tee-shirt and a kiss from the Mayor or was that a mare? 270k is a bit of a monster but the others are not bad.The fare from Dover is about £85 per car and its 2hr from Dunkirk to Liege. Am not asking for conscripts but just putting it out there,  cheers Simon G."
