Climb to Mons-en-Pévèle, a legendary spot in the Paris Roubaix. The cobbled section of Mons-en-Pévèle has always been used since its introduction on the course in 1978 (except in 2011).

December 10, 2023, Canal de la Deûle

The Canal de la Deûle is one of the oldest canals in northern France and connects the river Scarpe at Douai with the river Lys at Deûlémont, near the Belgian border. The canal is approximately 34.8 km long and has 3 locks. Most of the canal is included in the high-quality Dunkerque-Escaut waterway, and the remaining section through the port of Lille is often considered a branch of the main route, hence the alternative names Liaison or Antenne Bauvin-Lys.
