TO CELEBRATE THE QUEEN OF THE CLASSICS, PARIS-ROUBAIX, THE PEOPLE OF PERREN ST. HOSTED THEIR OWN HELL OF THE NORTH FOR THE RIDERS WHO WEREN'T ABLE TO MAKE IT OVER TO SEE THE REAL THING.
We started out at 9am in Highgate and rode 50 miles, covering 20 sectors of grave through Essex and Hertfordshire, ending up in High Barnet.
All the riders finished up together to eat frites with mayo and drink beer whilst watching Cancellara smash all the other pros into the ground.
A great day had by all; glorious sun, a couple of climbs, a couple of challenging sectors - all very epic.

Thank you Rapha.
How was your ride?
