Paris-Roubaix Warm Up

April 09, 2011 by Steve Tilford 4 comments 41 views

Here are a couple videos to get ready for tomorrows race. The first one is a short video of the 1990 finish between Steve Bauer and Eddy Planckaert. Trudi was at this finish with Steve. The next is long-A Sunday in Hell. I hope that Bjørn Selander has better luck this year than last. It is so cool he is racing Paris-Roubaix again so young. I bet his dad, Dag, is going more nuts than he is normally.

All of the upper midwest is excited for Bjorn and grateful to know Dag. Good folk. -FPA

I wonder how many centimeters Bauer lost by - probably still haunts him to this day?

I saw Dag win a criterium in Oshkosh Wisconsin in 1983, Pepsi-Lowenbrau Grad Prix of Cycling. I did not fare as well in my race earlier in the day.

I remember the Planckaer-Bauer finish vividly, and seeing the side on photo-finish in Cycling magazine. Planckaert won by the width of his tyre.
