This Sunday, 200 riders will tackle the 113th edition of Paris-Roubaix: The Hell of the North. 162 miles stand between those starting in Paris and the finish line within the Roubaix velodrome, including 27 sectors of harsh, jagged cobbles that will batter and bruise riders deep to their core.
The race marks the last with Team Sky for Sir Bradley Wiggins, who’s looking to become the first Tour de France winner to conquer Paris-Roubaix in 35 years. Sky have enjoyed a strong “cobbled classics” campaign to date, with victories at E3 Harelbeke and Omloop het Nieuwsblad.
NBC will be showing highlights of the race on TV at 7pm Eastern on Monday, while viewers in the UK can catch live TV coverage via British Eurosport from 11:45am BST, with highlights on British Eurosport 2 at 10pm BST. For a list of coverage in other countries, check out steephill.tv’s handy list.
