Paris-Roubaix Femmes avec Zwift is the ‘Queen of the classics’, and it’s easy to see why. A race quite unlike any other in the sport, the fourth edition of this fabled monument weaved a new chapter into the fabric of a race revered for its difficulty.
The fortunes of Human Powered Health were as unpredictable as the cobblestones themselves with ditches, dust, cobbles, wind and more all being thrown at our athletes.
The real beauty of Paris-Roubaix can be found in its iconic finish at the Vélodrome André-Pétrieux. Lined with fans, three deep at times, a cauldron effect is created with the cheers of the boisterous crowd carrying the Hell of the North’s gladiatorial finishers across the line.
The day’s racing written across dusty faces, blistered hands, cracked lips and the one thousand-yard stares of its finishers, only they truly know what it takes to carry rider and machine across the gruelling 17 sectors of pavé. A bond shared, tales from every kilometer and a new generation of cyclists inspired to conquer any challenge on two wheels.
