So many things Paris-Roubaix!

I'm not sure I've ever read as much as what I have about a race as I have for the Hell of the North happening tomorrow. I think I've spent hours watching YouTube clips and reading on everything from past results to current favorites, including what bikes they're going to be riding. Yeah keep laughing at me but with all of that, if more popped up, I'd be reading them.

Tomorrow's race airs live at 6:40 am and I'll be up and signed in. I'm hoping there's no sign in issues with CyclingTV. So many have trouble. I will certainly be following along on Podium Cafe. It has to be the best commentary by cycling fans that there is.

My favorites are absolutely Maggy, George, and Tony, with a soft spot for Stuey. I will be cheering loudly for Meatball and Will along with the rest of the argyle guys. I would totally love to see Mike up with the top finishers but he will no doubt be burying himself for Maggy. My hope is that the guys make it to the finish but if they don't it will be because they left it all on the cobbles for Mags. Good Luck Guys! Kick some cobble a$$!!

My choice for good reads are of course very biased but I still think you'll enjoy!
