I plan on catching the race and was really looking forward to the Arenberg forest stretch... So now that's it's out, i'm hoping for some suggestions on where I should watch it. Is the velodrome at the end worth it? Is it hard to get in. I figure the best bet is the pave somewhere - just looking for suggestions. Any ideas on the best strategy to watch it in more than one place or will traffic limit me to one viewing area? I'll be taking my bike. Thanks in advance.

you usually can see the race at multiple locales. if you don't have a vehicle find one of the tour buses and see if you can buy a seat. You'll leapfrog from place to place and in a few spots vehicles will just stop on the highway, everyone gets out and runs over to the course which runs paraleel in places. You should see the start, an early section of Pave, acouple more and then be near the end.
