Paris– Roubaix has been in existence since April 1896 & is the most revered of the UCI Pro Tour one-day races known as the Monuments. Dubbed ‘L’ Enfer du Nord’ (The Hell of the North) thanks to its reputation for an incredibly brutal course, the race pitches riders on to a battlefield of punishing cobblestones, known as the ‘pavé’. There are usually 27 sectors of pavé, graded in terms of length & difficulty. Suffice to say that racing road bikes over large & uneven cobbles is extremely tough, especially if, as is often the case, the weather is wet & windy. Since 1977, the winner of L’ Enfer du Nord has received a cobblestone trophy. Key
