Each week I'm posting a photo of Paris-Roubaix, in year order.
Here is a photo of Peter Sagan winning the 2018 Paris-Roubaix.
With 25km to go, a leading trio had an advantage of 45 seconds. It went up to 1.25 as Jelle Wallays lost contact and left the lone Silvan Dillier as an early breakaway member along with Peter Sagan at the front. Sagan tried to go solo on the cobblestone sections of Carrefour de l’Arbre and Hem but the Swiss champion stayed with him. The duo was never threatened by the chasing group from which Niki Terpstra exited to round out the podium behind Sagan who was logically faster than Dillier in the sprint on the velodrome of Roubaix.
Peter Sagan (Bora-Hansgrohe) became the first reigning world champion to win Paris-Roubaix since Bernard Hinault in 1981. He won the two-man sprint on the velodrome against Swiss national champion Silvan Dillier.
We have complete results for every edition of Paris-Roubaix. You can find them here.

What’s the big idea? Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius believed that in a palace or a soldiers’ camp one can live a life free of envy and desire, neither pursuing pleasure nor fearing pain as one performs the duties life has assigned.
Meditations is shot through with Stoic thought. Stoicism was the dominant philosophy of the era, not perhaps how we see philosophy today, an academic inquiry into life and the world. Instead, the ancients looked upon philosophy and therefore Stoicism as guide to living life correctly.
The core tenet of Stoicism is that happiness is found by accepting each moment as it presents itself. One should not pursue pleasure nor fear pain. One should try to understand the world and nature’s plan and try to live according to that understanding.
But Meditations is a wider-ranging work, touching on among other things, the existence of God or gods, the persistence of evil and injustice, and the value of knowledge. He wonders about the birth and growth of a child from a little seed.
So please travel back almost two thousand years ago and join Marcus Aurelius as sits in his camp in the evening meditating on life.
You can get What's the Big Idea: Meditations by Marcus Aurelius in Kindle eBook & audiobook versions here on Amazon.
What you'll find in our site:
The Tour de France. Lots of information, including results for every single stage of every Tour.
Other important bike races: the Giro d'Italia, the Vuelta a España, along with the classics, stage races, national championships, world records, and Olympics.
We keep a running record of the races going on in the current year, with results, photos, maps, etc. We've been doing this since 2001, so the results for this year as well as previous years are available here.
This site is owned and run by McGann Publishing. We're a micro-publisher specializing in books about cycling history. Interested? Here's information on our titles in print.
We are devoted to cycling and all of its characters and events. The sport's past matters to us. We've been interviewing anyone who will sit down and talk to us, then writing up the interviews, and collecting other stories about cycling. We have rider histories—the stories of individual riders, many by the great cycling writer Owen Mulholland. We have our oral history project—the results of our interviews. And we've collected lots of photos over the years, of racers, racing, manufacturing, etc., which we have arranged into photo galleries for your enjoyment.
Being in the bike business for many years, we had to opportunity to travel a lot in Europe, riding bikes, attending trade shows, etc. We've written up many of our travels, and had some contributions from others whose travels differed from ours.
What would the day be without the funnies? Our friend Francesca Paoletti has drawn a series of comics about bike related stuff, poking fun at us along the way.
If you are interested in bikes, sooner or later you will want to know some technical information about bikes. We have articles here about bike weight, how bike frames are prepped and assembled, selected bike parts, and others.
And then there's food! The bicycle runs on the human engine, and the human engine runs on food, so of course we're interested in that.
Along the way we've been privileged to meet many people in and around the bike business who do things we like. The folks whose ads are up there on the right are friends of ours who we believe conduct their business knowledgably and honorably; here are a few others who do stuff we like.
