This year is engraved in the memory of every Belgian cycling fan as the year in which Merckx won his first Tour de France, the first time in 30 years that a Belgian had won this prestigious race. In 1969, however, he won much more: his first Tour of Flanders; Li ge-Bastogne-Li ge (also known as La Doyenne, or 'The Old Lady'); and his third Milan-San Remo cycling classic.
