    attention anyone returning from charleroi sun eve

    the first stage proper of the 2004 tour de france is from liege to CHARLEROI on sunday afternon 4 th july.
    ive been to the tour in france so you can expect very heavy traffic in the charleroi area (including roads blocked off etc).

    factor this into your travel plans.
    btw it will be from charleroi on monday to namur so it will be busy monday as well !!!!!!.

    sure we've all seen it, it came through Cork a few years back

    no, it'd be good to catch it, the hangovers might slow us down though
