You may have heard that there are a number of prizes being awarded at our holiday party as well as door prizes. If you have anything that you would like to donate as a prize, please let me know and I will arrange to have it picked up. Thanks for your support!

I have five DVDs of a certain excellent Danish documentary of the 1976 Paris-Roubaix. Who's collecting goodies? Shall I just bring them on a ride some day?

One of my fave anecdotes of P-R (from Wikipedia):
The American television channel CBS covered Paris–Roubaix in the 1980s. Theo de Rooij, a Dutchman, had been in a promising position to win the 1985 race but had then crashed, losing his chance of winning. Covered in mud, he offered his thoughts on the race to CBS' John Tesh after the race:

“It's a bollocks, this race!” said de Rooij. “You're working like an animal, you don't have time to piss, you wet your pants. You're riding in mud like this, you're slipping ... it’s a pile of shit.”

When then asked if he would start the race again, de Rooij replied:

“Sure, it's the most beautiful race in the world!”
