Belgian super-star Tom Boonen faces a near-unique and deceptively simple challenge this year: can he become the first rider in over half a century to take the Tour of Flanders three times in a row? Back to back victories in 2005 and 2006 make Boonen the overwhelming favorite for the biggest bike race in cycling’s biggest heartland – Flanders. And with every pedal stroke he takes in the grueling 200-mile length, should he show even the slightest sign of weakness, you can guarantee his rivals will pounce, and with no remorse.

Flanders is a true epic, and Boonen’s challenge is an epic one. That’s why World Cycling Productions will be there in Flanders following local hero Boonen as closely as the most persistent Belgian bike fans do.

But Flanders remains much, much more than the fate of one bike rider: a host of other riders from grizzled German veteran Steffen Wesemann to classy Spanish specialist Juan Antonio Flecha are poised in the wings and eager to pull Boonen off his pedestal. Plus there is more than one rider in Boonen’s own team whose loyalty could be questioned...

Thanks to this World Cycling Productions DVD you’ll get an unparalleled view of Boonen’s struggle to ride into cycling history and see whether he is up to this awesome challenge Commentary by Phil Liggett and Paul Sherwen. Approx 240 min.
