With Sunday’s Queen of the Classics, Paris-Roubaix, and the last day on the cobbles, we’re heading into the second and last part of the Classic season starting with Amstel gold Race on Sunday.

The last five weeks on cobbles have been full of drama and hundreds of different sub-plots to make up the multi-layered narrative of the great racing in Flanders. Jered Gruber and Ashley Norris have been chasing the cobbled classics since February.

Here’s a small selection of some of their stunning images. Every rider has a different story to tell, and each of these images paints a tale of its own.
