How gnarly are the cobbles at Roubaix?
Pretty gnarly if you ask me, and I’m more of a mountain biker than a roadie.I ride fast descents through rocks, twisty trails over roots and even make the odd jump here and there on my mountain bike, but riding at these speeds over cobbles with thin tyres is a true test of skill. Yip, Roubaix is pretty gnarly.
Thanks for the video Curtis!
