    Rate Paris-Roubaix 2016

    If I'm 100% honest, I've always found Paris-Roubaix a bit underwhelming compared to its reputation. I fell in love last night. 10.

    2014 Giro d'Italia Stage 6: Sassano – Montecassino | 257 km

    BMC spend a lot of petrol keeping Cadel at the front for this very reason. Smart riding. Good first week for the Australians but still think Uran and Quintana in best seat for GC.
