Trappist Beers. The Spring Classics. Belgian Culture. Mitch Docker is back in the motherland of cycling to fulfil his lifelong dream; to experience the Flemish Holy Week as a pure bike racing fan.
From the Tour of Flanders through to Paris Roubaix, Mitch is drinking the best beers, riding the storied roads that define these bike races, and meeting true legends of the sport to discover what makes Belgium a heartland of cycling.
From his base in Kortrijk, Mitch explores the mystique of the Trappist abbeys that brew the world renowned ales, encounters World Champions and Belgian cycling legends out on the road, and finally makes it to the roadside of his favourite race; Paris-Roubaix.

Loved it, thanks Mitch! Long live Holy Week!!
Fantastic docu, really like how you catch the flemish vibe. Always welkom for " a cold one" greatings from the kids, Jeroen.
Loved it Mitch!! Love that you still have that much enthusiasm as a spectator even though you lived it as a pro.
A very handsome man at 30:33 there Mitch!! Great to meet and chat and I can confirm… There was a puncture and a chain off where I said.
Thanks
Just awesome!!!
Oh man, had tears in my eyes for the second time, watching everyone's reaction to the Wout win, fantastic. And love the foam in the stash. Having had one, I know licking it off has a third flavour (foam and beer being the first two!).
6:04 good choice Mitch!
19:51 so true Lea Lin!
Great work Mitch and team. Loved the production. Class.
This makes me want to go to Belgium 🍻
That was fantastic. Went there last year and did all of this with my LITP casquette on, even rode from Kortrijk to see the start of Schieldeprisj. Loved this, hope to see more.
This was fantastically epic! Thanks!
