Johan Museew: The Lion of Flanders

Johan Museeuw, 'The Lion of Flanders' was the strongest Classics cyclist of his time. Over the course of his 17-year career, the 'King of the Bergs' has made Belgium's most brutal cobblestone climbs his own. With three victories at Flanders and Roubaix, many other Classics won and a World Road Title, Johan is a true legend in the sport. Bernie Eisel cycled along with the Flemish legend along his favorite routes to talk to him about the races, his rituals and how he managed to develop a mental strength that humans can only imagine.
