The Paris–Roubaix, the “Hell of the North” (Updated Profile 2025)
Our Paris–Roubaix profile has long been one of the most-loved race day rides at ICA. It’s unlike anything else you’ll teach—after all, there aren’t many chances to immerse your riders in the chaos and challenge of grinding over ancient cobblestones, dodging mud or dust, and fighting for traction. While the real-life course is brutal, in class we keep it safe and fun…but still work our butts off. The best news—it’s been updated for 2025 with inspired coaching to help you make this ride even more memorable. My latest playlist was updated last year—and it’s my best one yet!Read more…
