The Hell of the North

I'm sure anyone whose interested knows it already.
However, I'd like to remind all that on SBS Thursday 10 April at 2305 there
is a 35 minute doco about Stuart O'Gradys win at the 2007 Paris-Roubaix one
day classic. And on Sunday 13 April we have this years race broadcast LIVE.
Hooray for the long playing hard disk video recorder.

I've always loved the idea of a one day race run at the tail end of the
European winter, on road bikes, over every cobbled farm track the organisers
can find. It does sound like hell but every pro rider whose ever ridden it
says they wouldn't have missed it for anything. Anyway, top marks to SBS for
picking up the live coverage.
