just one word: FINALLY!
Weather seems to promise a wet edition, missing from almost 20 years, and almost every top cobbles rider is there. The recipe for a fantastic sunday is served!
I'm again expecting a huge performance by Wout, but at the worlds he proved me and many fans wrong.
I'm really excited for the women race too!

Hopefully we’re in for a memorable edition. What an elite startlist, for some reason I’m thinking we’ll have a surprise winner or at least not one of the obvious favourites at the start. |

Feels weird to have it now but I’m super down for some Roubaix action any day of the year (well, any Sunday  ) And if it is to be my first wet Roubaix then it’ll be well worth the wait I’m sure

11/06/24 - knockout said "Winning is fine I guess. Truth be told this felt completely unimportant."

Hoping Vanmarcke, but with that weather it'll be a cyclocross so it has to be Mathieu.
Strange that you name those Wolfpack guys, I would put Stybar and Lampaert as first choices for Roubaix.
I will also be watching what the women can do here. Hard to look past the dutch cyclocross riders here.
Changed my sig, this was getting absurd.

DQS has more rider who could win it than domestique ones 
main reasons are that I never saw Lampaert charisma enough for a monument, maybe I'll be wrong...
and Stybar is cursed at PR, but yeah lets put everything in the barrel
anyway Senechal is their best arrow imo

I would love a Lampaert or Vanmarcke win, but think it will be one of the cyclocrossers 
And with Paris-Roubaix there's always a big chance of a lesser expected rider doing something juicy, from a Belgian perspective it would be fun to see Robeet, Claeys or Campenaerts with a good result, possibly from the early break.

Im hoping Kristoff finally takes a Paris-Roubaix, that would be amazeballz.
More likely a Belgian by the initials WVA taking it by a late attack from a 3 man group.

I really like Asgreen for this, but who knows where anyone's form is at the moment. I'll be rooting for some of the older names.

F*cking cycling has made me cry twice this year. Watching Cav equal the Tour wins record, and watching Deignan ride one of the all time great cobbles races 
This race DEMANDED full live coverage, and i'm so proud the women proved it to ASO yet again!
Incredible event, so brilliantly raced and excelently held. Credit where it's due to ASO but they did do a good job today. Still, the women yet again embarassed them with stunning racing and personality.
F*cking on a high and i'm pumped for tomorrow as well for what will be an epic event as well.

Today is going to BE a fantastic day for us fans. Today is going to BE a horrible day for the riders. Hope everyone makes it safely home but we have a race in our hands. Allez!

Pevelenberg (Sector 11) this morning..

If they don't cut certain parts, this will be a cyclocross race.

This is why Heinrich Haussler took part of Cyclo-Cross races at the beginning of the year. He’s ready. |

This is a such a strong group that has gone away. They won't be easy to catch |

Mental race so far. Fortunately just a few minor crashes.
I can't keep track of anything that's happening
