Anyone catch the Paris-Roubaix on OLN? Really a good race to watch and very entertaining. Too bad Ekimov didn't have more kick in a sprint. Those guys are animals.

I marshall at the Philadelphia race each year and whenever I might dream of being a racer all I have to do is think about those guys flying by and I know that they are in such a different league that it is amazing. My hat is off to all of them. Good luck to Ekimov, Lance and all of USPS the rest of this year!!

It was a great race indeed. I could not believe the number of crashes. I was hurting just watching those guys fall!

Van Petegem II:

He kisses it again !
Another unbelievable performance of van Petegem.
Where was Musseuw, where was Vandenbroucke, where was Quick-Step ?

Itīs mud or dust - Paris-Roubaix, the monument of the North.
