Which monument is the most prestigious?

[TeoSheva]

In italy it is like this:

1) PR
2) Milano-Sanremo
3) GdL, Giro delle Fiandre, LBL

Yeah on a global scale, including the countries with other monuments PR is massive.

PR is massively popular in Belgium too. It's almost seen as a Belgian race that happens to be run (just) across the border. I just read that 34 Belgian police officers are assisting the French police with keeping Belgian supporters somewhat in check this weekend.

interesting that LBL is even with RvV at 23 a piece (so far)
would have thought RvV would have been further ahead than LBL

 

[Cobblestones]

If we look at number of posts in our race threads, we have PR>RVV>MSR.

Hinault called Paris Roubaix "stupid" ... despite following that one for decades (?!?) after watching today, I agree

 

[Oldman]

Today the best looked to be PR. It was a bike race instead of an engineered outcome. The guy proposed to a woman he was so passionate and I hope we all have a moment like that.
