2001 Paris Roubaix Finish - USPS Cycling George Hincapie

[@WallStreet987]

Saw this 2001 race in person. If you love cycling, it is a must trip. Rent a car, get the huge Michelin road atlas and have a plan: you can leapfrog the race and end up seeing it 5-6 times on the day. Wear trail runners because you have to pretty much run from where you're able to park to the viewing spot, then run back to the car after the race has passed through. Repeat until the race is 20k out from Roubaix then duck into some pub, order a beer and watch the finish on TV!

George Hincapie is the greatest cyclist of all time and then some.

I don't think I could handle being a race director/sportif in the car...you have to have nerves of steel and ice water in your veins to deal with all that craziness and assure your riders they are fine when their lifelong dream is going to pieces. Cool video, thanks for uploading.

The stuff of Legends. I wish Big George and Team BMC all the very best for 2010.

[@francaisecole5053]

What did they mean when they said the riders wouldn't work with him?

[@dutchstriker19]

Great video!

[@bbiossonic]

monstrous ride! The Hell!

[@WallStreet987]

Domo rode this race to tactical perfection.

[@kenacycle]

I sure hope he wins it before he retires.

[@D370n470r]

We all hoped and it never happened

[@dahgutone]

Where is this video from? Seems like its from a movie. I like it!!!

[@D370n470r]

Road to Paris

[@podlood]

@ironmanc5 I think he said: "hij he godverdomme plat ze moet'n muh deur loat'n" , which would translate in english as: "God damn it he's got a flat they have to let me through"

[@ironmanc5]

what did the driver shout at 5.05?

[@rfcdgaf]

I believe it was from the road to paris documentary.

[@littlewing62]

raining pari roubaix is hell..

[@rfcdgaf]

What is the driver sayinhg at 5:08

[@greenpeacedoug]

I still think he can win, you gotta have hope, but the odds are long. BMC needs to support him and perhaps Boonen/Devolder's luck with not having mechanicals has run out? Who knows, but I'll be watching.

[@ChuChuTrainization]

he wont anymore, too old but still a great rider, he deserved a win

[@davianlomboan2397]

Johan Bruyneel and Dirk Demol the best!

[@VeloTrip]

Hincapie´s gonna work for Alessandro Ballan :(

[@gnoam9]

Once again, George had a lot of bad luck, but also spent energy whinging at 2 Domo riders to help him chase down one of their riders. If he out his head down, he'd probably done better.

[@NikkenMagboy]

museeuw has admitted to doping, but only for 2004 (yeah right!)

[@NotJustMusic]

bruyneel is the man!

[@espada9]

Everyone knows the best cycling is in South Eastern Tajikistan!

[@abraxa20]

Poor doper team

[@AndresMartinezSegura86]

Pobre ignorante o envidioso.

[@rfcdgaf]

I don't think so... 4 against 1 in a lead group? You lose! Hehe
