Navardauskas, Van Hecke, and Clarke, J
Are the three men to breakaway
They lead as the race achieves midway
With a 6:15 lead on the Côte d'A
The serpentine heights of the Mur de Huy
Who'll climb twice successfully?
Dan Martin's knee injury
Is said to be in full recovery
Good enough for the Wall of Huy?
We will have to wait and see
And what of darling Philippe G?
Tucked in the pack expectantly
The course this year has an altered finale
Will Phil add Flèche-Wallone to his tally?
And as an aside and by the way
The planets are going ape today
We're at the apex of a cardinal square
Will that mean a win for United-Healthcare?
It's best to expect the unexpected
No scenario can be rejected
BMC under Allen Peiper
Is like a sweet peach
But could it be riper?
Lampre-Merida supports Costa, Rui
Also Diego Ulissi
2014 of La Flèche-Wallone
features a women's' peloton
With KMs to go under 40
the drama awaits on the Mur de Huy
A climb which must be made times three
It's on the second climb of the Côte d'Ahin
That the ranks of riders start to thin
The pace goes up exponentially
Before the ascent of the Mur de Huy
KMs left are 23
As the bunch toils up the Mur de Huy
BMC asserts their authority
Katusha stands firm for Moreno, D.
Ditto Omega-P for Mike Kwaitkowski
One KM is left to ride
Valverde takes it in his stride
Dan Martin takes second
Kwaitkowski three
All hail to the victors on the Mur de Huy
