Summary

Life in the Peloton is proudly brought to you by MAAP PARIS ROUBAIX! What. A. Race. Holy hell, guys - what have we just witnessed. That was the best Roubaix’s I’ve ever seen…that was the best race I’ve ever seen! I couldn’t wait till Wednesday to talk through this one, so I sat down with Durbo in person right here in Roubaix after the race to go through the dramatic, emotional, epic edition blow by blow. I was sector hopping at Paris Roubaix today - from the first cobbled sector, to the Carrefour de l’Arbre, then on to the iconic Roubaix velodrome to watch the women’s sprint finish. Meanwhile, Durbo was out there on the stones getting stuck in. We’ve both had pretty epic days, although I think Luke’s earned a few more post race beers than me. I had to take the opportunity whilst I’m here in Europe to sit down with Luke, recap the race, dive into the key moments that made this edition one for the history books, hear from inside the bunch direct from Durbs, and - of course - squeeze in a cheeky Roubaix Communiquiz. Guys this is a special emergency podcast from someone who’s just raced - as I’m sure you’ll agree - what was one of the best races of all time. Enjoy.
