If I had to be a road racer again...

...you'd find me on the roads of northern France and Belgium. The closest road racing will ever get to mountain biking is this weekend, the 104th edition of Paris-Roubaix.

So who's it going to be?

Boonen?

Hincapie?

Pozzato?

Van Petegem?

We can have fun on the Blog picking a winner or...

you can come by the shop with a buck, pick the winner and what place you think Gary Fisher mtb'r Ryder Hesjedal will finish (he rides for Phonak now). Winner takes all the cash, tie-break goes to whoever picks Hesjedal's finish the closest. Deadline is Saturday night at 6pm and you can enter as many times as you like.

My buck is on TOMMY BOOOONEN with the repeat (sorry George), oh, and Ryder, he'll finish 63rd...

Paolo Bettini in a shocker! After a 65k three man break away with Antonio Flecha, and Belgian Nico Mattan. Paolo sits on for the final 3k to take the three man sprint. Ryder gets blown out the back early and packs it in at the 60k mark. He is back riding on the dirt by August.
