    We set Reuben & Jack the challenge of riding the brutal cobbles of the Paris Roubaix Challenge on Saturday, spectating the pro race on Sunday and then turning up at work on time on Monday. The rest is history.

    I don't understand why more people don't ride bikes like these. I have a Cannondale Slate Ultegra that uses 650x42 tires and a 30mm lefty fork. I can cruise easily 20mph on smoother surfaces, and when I hit the rough, harsh, brick roads around town I bomb the f' out of them at 18+ mph. You almost don't even slow down on rough terrain, it's soooo much fun. When I plan my rides 20-40 miles I always put brick roads in there somewhere because it's just so much fun to bomb rough areas like that when 'you shouldn't be able to' on a road ride.

      I ride a MTB with Schwalbe Bigone's 29 x 2.35. These tyres are incredibly fast on the road, but also amazingly fast and comfortable on really rough single track. As long as its dry, they are very capable off road.

    Correction: You guys tried to find a hotel room the night before the second oldest bike race ;-). Paris-Roubaix was first raced in 1896, but the first incarnation of Liege-Bastogne-Liege was already held in 1892. Anyway, love the video...

    I would have gone for harder gearing - Paris-Roubaix is pretty flat and you don’t need a 1-1.

  • @dabhanddave
    @dabhanddave 6 лет назад

    Ironic that it's sponsored by Eurotunnel Shuttle when they do everythng they can to discourage people from taking bikes on the train. Fine if you want to drive with bikes in/on the car but generally much easier to take the ferry if you're riding.

    • @bikeradar
      @bikeradar  6 лет назад +2

      We think you might be confusing Eurotunnel Le Shuttle with another service that uses the same tunnel. We can't comment on their policy, but our sponsors don't take foot passengers with or without bikes.

  • @jackseph03
    @jackseph03 6 лет назад

    I'm sure those bikes - suspension and faaaaat tyres - were better on the cobbles than the bikes the pros, and most other people on the sportive(?) ride, but isn't the point of doing a ride like Roubaix that you experience a bit of what the actual race across the cobbles is like? Surely riding a suspension fork or 47mm tyres across the cobbles is like riding Ventoux on an Ebike?

  • @mattkemp2749
    @mattkemp2749 6 лет назад +3

    I got sick of idiots pulling sketchy undertakes like you guys continually did. Glad we didn't meet on the pavé.

    • @mrtnknrr
      @mrtnknrr 6 лет назад +4

      Even though I agree with your point, you're just humiliating yourself with this childish behaviour.

    • @mattkemp2749
      @mattkemp2749 6 лет назад +2

      Who? Why? If you mean me, firstly why would it be childish or humiliating to get fed up of idiots putting others at risk by carving left and right across the pave while riding the same event I rode, and secondly why would it be childish or humiliating to object to it on a video showing exactly that behaviour? I'm confused - or is this a classic example of trolling?

    • @josephfarrugia2350
      @josephfarrugia2350 6 лет назад +2

      You mean Roubaix riders always overtake on the same side, with the cyclists they are overtaking all staying on one side, intuitively & considerately knowing when they're about to be overtaken?! Wow Matt, I'd like to visit that parallel universe you live in.
