The break is 8
after 50 km
Paris-Roubaix begins again
51 k of pavé awaits
Hard knocks for the break
To contemplate
Every heart must fill with dread
As the cobbles loom ahead
The pace is fast at over 46 k
Racing towards the first pavé
Tom Boonen has a puncture
His first in 14 starts
He bounces back in beat of heart
25 KM to Forest of A
Always important in Paris-Roubaix
Dust is the enemy today
As they draw close to Arenberg Forêt
Sky leads into the breach
With the faves right behind
Napoleonic cobbles are never kind
Teams vie for position at head of the pack
Glad that Arenberg is at their backs
A team mates' faux pas puts Fab off his bike
Kristoff crashed out, too, an unhappy sight
Trek's Roulston, H. caused the crash
Boonen at the head makes full on dash
Hell of the North
Stays on course
Tom Boon breaks out looking strong!
Cancellara and Wigs still roll along
G. Thomas still powering in the front
The other lads refuse to hump
Boonen moves up signaling his ire
He's been frustrated 'tho he's on fire
So far it's been a war of attrition
Are Wigs and Thor in winning condition?
Mons-en-Pévèle
pavé hell
Trek takes up the chase for Spart
Can he finish what they start?
Fab sucks gels with super cool
He takes off-- the race to rule
Sagan steps up with something slick
Will is bad day start to click?
Everybody seems to agree
Pete's showing great maturity
Everyone is at their limit
So much talent is still in it
Dust dervishes dance in glee
through an attack by Fabian C
Tom B labors like Hercules
Sagan sips liquid feigning ease
He attacks eats up the slack
He goes alone not looking back!
The lad shows cheek--you must admit
Vanmarcke decides to go for it
Sagan outrides even the dust
Or is it Brad in which we trust?
Degenkolb is hanging in
We couldn't say right now who'll win
Stybar is there, he deserves a note
Terpstra too is holding hope
De Baker rides for Degenkolb
He's doing a mighty job
Terpstra attacks in a lull petite
Will he put Gods to defeat?
He's in the zone and heading home
Speeding towards the Velodrome
He takes his glory easily
What a ride for Omega P!
John Degenkolb takes two
Cancellara takes three
I think this race will make history
So many faves showed form today
A super edition of Paris-Roubaix
