Uci should do a gt of 21 paris roubaix. My favourite race is back!!! And watch out the tornado, he will do damage in arenberg
Tom wont let bad fortune ruin the race, attacking and animating the race from afar will limit that so I also do think he will do just that.

Hopefully Hayman can follow up last year's epic ride with a worthy title defence. It was like everyone but Boonen forgot how strong he is last year.
No doubt it's Paris-Roubaix. Paris-Roubaix is an anachronism in the era of power metres and calculation. Wasn't it Tommeke who called RVV a classic and Paris-Roubaix a myth?
heart says Sagan
head says
*** Boonen, Kristoff
** Degenkolb, Stybar, van Avermaet
* Boasson Hagen, Gilbert, Lampaert, Naesen, Sagan, Stannard, Rowe, Terpstra (or any other Quick stepping in Devolder-style)

Re:
I was gonna say Boonen *****
Kristoff, GVA, Sagan. **
* The rest.
I wasnt planning to go to Roubaix this year, but i think i will.. Kristoff needs it
. And Kristoff has 15% more watt s now in tests than he had in 2015 when he won everything :
I still want Boonen to win, just makes my generation of cycling better..

Tony Martin and Durbridge are my dark horses for this race.
A shame Pippo is not riding this. I guess we have to asterisk this one.

Re:
Tony Martin will work for Kristoff.. Luke Durbridge have no chance in top 20 here.
Top 5 will be GVA, Sagan, Kristoff, Degenkolb and Gilbert.
Gilbert have no chance when its not going up , but he is a diamond!

Re:
After last year's Roubaix my preference was Roubaix... until yesterday. I don't remember being riveted to my TV for 95Kms before soooooo I'm going with Flanders.
Until Sunday, then it will be Roubaix for sure.

Re: Re:
Durbridge was 18th last year and he is much stronger this year...
One thing is sure, if there's a race where you don't have things 100% certain, it's Roubaix.
Also, I think that Gilbert isn't riding this. Quick-Step said that RvV was the last race where Gilbert and Boonen were together. Only if they changed their mind after sunday.

Re: Re:
As former world cyclocross champion, yes. But, he rides for QS. The team is overloaded with podium contenders. A guy like Stybar can easily see his chances go away to keep someone else fresh.

Re:
Well, the Belgians love the Ronde more than the French love L'Enfer.
For me, it's Roubaix.

Durbridge-Keukeleire-or Hayman again would be nice too
I hope Sagan-Kristoff-Gva-Boonen-Dege dont win
