ROAD TO ROUBAIX

Antipodean cycling fans are well versed in the lore of ‘The Queen of the Classics’, The Paris–Roubaix cycling race. Every April, the toughest cyclists on the international circuit saddle up to attack the crumbling cobble-stones that still lie on the pathways north of Paris, leading into Belgium. We have been blessed with one superb documentary on this race, the 1974 film, “A Sunday In Hell”. Now it’s time for an update.
“Road to Roubaix ”, set in 2007, tells the stories of the riders, mechanics, fans and the brutal, unpredictable landscape that is the stage for the Paris-Roubaix.
