And Randy was good enoguh to bring it up to me. <BR/>So in the commercials, VS. was advertising that the show time for Roubaix is on the 20th. I went to VS. website and confirmed that indeed it is on next weekend. Dammit!

Section 10's 3km (Mons-En-Pevele) will break everyone's legs except the winner's. Will Hincapie win? Probably not. Will it snow? Probably. Would it be fun to watch with Spencer--oh, yeah!
