Paris Roubaix cyclosportive
      #21344 - 12/05/2008 18:19

Is anyone planning on riding this Sportive? I'm signed up, had difficulty trying to get anyone to ride it with me so would be intrested to meet anyone else heading over and find out your plans to overcome the logistical problem of the finish being 260km's from the start and the organisers transport leaving at 2.00am from Roubaix, which in Bristol is considered the middle of the night

Hi Marcus,

A couple of us are doing the Paris-Roubaix cyclo-sportive and we may be able to help in some way.

Drop me a PM.

Lionel - Does n't the phrase "..had difficulty getting anybody to ride with me...." ring any alarm bells???

marcuswithbristols - Good Luck for Paris-Roubaix.

Cool, currently i've got a crossing booked on the Saturday morning. I had planned to dump my car in Roubaix Saturday lunchtime and somehow make it to the start ( Probably ride to Lille and then catch a train) by Saturday night. The easiest route seemed to be a train back to Paris and then out again to Compiegne. What are your plans?

Marcus

only found out about this after it had happened. Would be interested to hear your thoughts on this ? Can someone post a link to the sign up page so I can at try and sign up for the 2010 event.

Seems you can also do the Tour of Flanders anyone done that ?
