The Paris Roubaix is probably THE most exciting race to watch. As a fan, I'm virtually on the edge of my seat the entire way. It's just a blast to watch. Of course it doesn't hurt when you have a rider to pull for (Sagan) and one you definitely don't (van Aert).
Yep, great race. So, don't take this as a challenge, just trying to learn, but why the diss on van Aert? I know him casually as a dominant cyclocross rider who has impressed in a quick conversion to road racing. Is there a primadonna thing there?
Also, for a guy recovering from a sickness, P.S. sure did impress.
