Zac.A Posted April 8, 2012 Share When Boonen attacked so early I had my doubts, just shows you how powerful he is, and probably in the best form of his life. Well done Boonen, thoroughly enjoyed watching a rider of his class dominate the race. I think he was trying to eclipse Spartacus' win two years ago, had to go from further out you know.

T-Bob Posted April 8, 2012 Share Boonen: Proper Roubaix legend! Great fricking ride. I can't believe that one posted that the P-R was over rated... compared to what? 200+kms of classics racing is all you need to know. None of the classics are comparable, that's why they still exist and each one is unique.

Drifting on the Pave. http://www.velominati.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/kingkelly-620x431.png Love that pic! Picked out an old copy of Cyclesport while having my constituional this morning, and found an article detailing what they thought were the 30 most, er, classic, Classics of the modern era. This one came in at No 1: Tchmil's win in 1994. it came after an attack 50km out, much like Boonen's did. And he was riding a RockShox… Coming in at No 4 was Hinault's win in '81: "There, I've done it. I'm never coming back."

NotSoBigBen Posted April 12, 2012 Share Not sure if anyone mentioned this but I noticed a 'cantilever' rear brake on Lars Boom's bike, not sure what benefit that may have had? OK so saw on the 'net that he rode a 'TCX' which is a cyclocross bike ....
