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.

It’s time for a déja vu of our Canyon Ride, this time with a Groundhog Day theme. This concept is perfect for an entertaining out-and-back ride where you use an original song on one direction of the ride and a remix or cover of that song on the return.
