Armstrong to make Belgian return
Lance Armstrong returns to action on Sunday in a bid to get his Tour de France preparations back on course.
The six-time winner will race in the Fleche Brabanconne event in Belgium with his Discovery Channel team.
Two days later the American will ride in the 208km Paris-Camembert one-day race, which takes place in Normandy.
Armstrong, 33, dropped out of the first event of the new ProTour season, the Paris-Nice, earlier this month with a sore throat and fever.
His team manager Johan Bruyneel said: "He's been feeling really good while out training and he's motivated to race again."
Armstrong is scheduled to compete in the Tour of Flanders on 3 April before returning to the United States.
