  • CYCLING LEGENDS Autoworld in Het Thema Van De Tour De France!
    Persbericht Van 20 juni tot 25 augustus 2019 Autoworld - Brussel Stelt voor CYCLING LEGENDS Autoworld in het thema van de Tour de France! Deze zomer maken we een bijzonder moment mee: de Ronde van Frankrijk vertrekt dit jaar in Brussel! Om dit te vieren, organiseert Autoworld naast de expo over het honderdjarige bestaan van het merk Citroën, een unieke terugblik, waar u alles komt te weten over de geschiedenis van het wielrennen en zijn legenden, van het prille begin in 1819 tot nu. Wist je trouwens dat de hal van het jubelpark, waarin Autoworld nu gehuisvest is, in 1902 het toneel was voor het Auto – en fietssalon? Een ongewone tentoonstelling Omdat de Ronde van Frankrijk dit jaar in Brussel vertrekt, denken we ook terug aan de eerste zege van de grootste wielerkampioen aller tijden: Eddy Merckx. Wist u trouwens dat de gele trui dit jaar ook 100 jaar bestaat? Wat alles extra magisch maakt, is het feit dat Eddy Merckx het record draagt voor de meeste dagen in het geel tijdens de Ronde van Frankrijk. Hij heeft de felbegeerde kleur maar liefst 96 dagen lang gedragen. Dit legendarische stukje wielergeschiedenis komt tot leven in de tentoonstelling 'Cycling Legends', die verdeeld is in drie hoofdthema's: * 200 jaar verhalen over de grootste kampioenen (1819 – 2019), * de galerie over het honderdjarige bestaan van de gele trui (1919 – 2019) * een deel dat exclusief gewijd is aan de grootste Belgische kampioenen (1919 – 2019). Bereid u alvast voor op een golf van emoties wanneer u de fietsen, uitrusting en trofeeën van tal van kampioenen met eigen ogen ziet, naast een collectie zeldzame oude posters, historische documenten en andere interessante stukken.

(EJiiPfflNITHIS Lance Armstrong Has Something to Get Off His Chest He doesn't use performance-enhancing drugs, he insists, no matter what his critics in the European press and elsewhere say. And yet the accusations keep coming. How much scrutiny can the two-time Tour de France winner stand? by Michael Hall In May of last year, Lance Armstrong was riding in the Pyrenees, preparing for the upcoming Tour de France. He had just completed the seven-and-a-half-mile ride up Hautacam, a treacherous mountain that rises 4,978 feet above the French countryside. It was 36 degrees and raining, and his team's director, Johan Bruyneel, was waiting with a jacket and a ride back to the training camp. But Lance wasn't ready to go. "It was one of those moments in my life I'll never forget," he told me. "Just the two of us. I said, 'You know what, I don't think I got it. I don't understand it.1 Johan said, 'What do you mean? Of course you got it. Let's go.' I said, 'No, I'm gonna ride all the way down, and I'm gonna do it again.' He was speechless. And I did it again." Lance got it; he understood Hautacam—in a way that would soon become very clear.

  • Palmarès De Liège-Bastogne-Liège 1Er De 1892 À 2013
    Edition Spéciale 245 Ce 27 avril 2014 : La Doyenne des Classiques souffle ses 100 bougies à Ans… Depuis de nombreuses années, la commune d’Ans et le cyclisme connaissent une véritable histoire d’amour. C’est notamment en 1992 que l’aventure « Liège-Bastogne-Liège » débuta à Ans, en quittant son arrivée traditionnelle à Liège pour arriver tout d’abord rue de l’Yser et enfin rue Jean Jaurès au terme de la terrible côte de Saint-Nicolas. La Doyenne inspire le respect à tous les coureurs, celui qui s’y impose ne peut être qu’un Grand, il suffit à ce propos de parcourir le palmarès de cette course en page 3. Mais derrière l’exploit purement sportif de ce Liège- Bastogne-Liège, se cache également une fantastique fête populaire qui rassemble toutes les générations, que l’on soit sportif ou non. A une époque où tout se paie, le cyclisme est encore un des rares sports « Spectacle » entièrement gratuit pour le public. En tant que Bourgmestre d’Ans, je suis particulièrement fier de cette arrivée qui, l’espace d’un jour, met à l’honneur notre commune. Je voudrais à ce propos mettre en exergue le travail accompli par le personnel de l’Echevinat des Sports et des Travaux dirigé par Grégory Philippin, ainsi que par les services de Police. En effet, au cours de ces dernières années, une véritable complicité s’est installée entre la société organisatrice « Amaury Sport Organisation » et notre commune, qui au travers de cette manifestation démontre ses compétences en matière d’organisation. En marge de ces aspects techniques, Ans a également voulu marquer le coup à l’occasion de cette 100e édition.

(Pindar) Water. There's too much of it, or too little. It's too salty, or too sweet. It wells up from the ground, carves itself a way through the land, and then it's called a river or a stream. It descends from the heavens in a variety of forms - as dew or hail, to mention just the extremes. And then, of course, there is the all-encompassing water which we call the sea, and which reminds us of the beginning of all things. The English once labelled the Netherlands across the North Sea ‘this indigested vomit of the sea’. But the Dutch went to work on that vomit, systematically and stubbornly: ‘... their tireless hands manufactured this land, / drained it and trained it and planed it and planned’ (James Brockway). As God's subcontractors they gradually became experts in living apart together. Look carefully at the first photo. The water has struck again. We're talking 1926. Gelderland.
