I think it's totally different when it's the Tour de France vs. a cobble/gravel classic. No one wants the Tour to be about that, but Paris-Roubaix is explicitly about that.

Cyclist Jasper Stuyven toasts with a glass of champagne after his 3rd place at the 2026 Paris Roubaix
Happy Wout Hangover Day to all to celebrate!
Though in all the chaos, I have to give Jasper Stuyven a big HELL YEAH for scrapping his way to third! Holding off that group and just freaking surviving had to feel awesome!
So congrats to my second-favorite Jasper in the peloton! ๐๐

So, in all of the #ParisRoubaix excitement yesterday, I was off on my own little adventure for most of it, as in my 1st ever bike race.
A huge thank you to allll of you peeps who offered encouragement and advice. I went into this not knowing what to expect and you all came through. It means a lot.
Paris-Roubaix does not reward the best rider. It rewards the one the road breaks least.

This yearโs Paris-Roubaix will live long in the memory. Photographer James Startt spent his day rattling over northern Franceโs infernal cobbles to capture all the action and emotion of the Queen of the Classics

A piece I always wanted to write, but never knew if I would.
Wout Van Aert wins Paris-Roubaix, finally, thanks to absent friends, the scars that came before, and a nation that never stopped believing.

Good morning everyone. Just stopping by to say, we now exist in the timeline where Wout van Aert won Paris-Roubaix.
That was all. Have a lovely day everyone ๐
Congratulations to Wout van Aert, the 2026 Paris-Roubaix champion! An outstanding victory for a deserving and dedicated professional. ๐

She was the underdog coming into the Paris-Roubaix sprint, but Franzi Koch's win certainly wasn't a shock escapecollective.com/why-we-shoul...
I have to admit that seeing Jasper catch blame for MVDPโs loss is harshing my happy post #ParisRoubaix buzz.
Heโs been sick, heโs been exhausted, & he reacted on instinct to help his captain. The 2nd Monument this year that heโs given up his race like that.
How about we give him some grace? #JPDF
All that being said, I had a great time watching the #ParisRoubaix replay (from 125km to go, as suggested!) with a friend on a video call.
I would have been ๐ณ๐ฑ if I had been watching that live, LOL!
I finished my race, but more on that later. It wasnโt nearly as exciting. ๐
And โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ Wout! Ahem.
Of course I am a bit ๐ for Pogi, he worked and trained so hard for this race, slashed his spring calendar for it. But he will hopefully have other chances and his day.
There was no one, and I mean NO ONE on that course who deserved this more than Wout. And he EARNED IT. I am โค๏ธโค๏ธโค๏ธ.
