Default Erik Dekker wins race on eve of P-R

Ronde van Drenthe, UCI 1.3, 4/10/04:

1 Erik Dekker (Ned) Rabobank 5.08.17
2 David Mckenzie (Aus) Navigators Insurance CT 0.19
3 Simone Cadamuro (Ita) De Nardi

Admittedly, Rabobank was one of only two Paris-Roubaix teams contesting this
race (the other being Bankgiroloterij). But it is a cobbled classic, and it
shows that Dekker has the right form...

-Sonarrat.

In that case, it's too bad he's not riding in P-R this year.

Cobbled classic my ass (uh no it isn't). There are hardly any cobbles in
Drenthe. No argument about his form, but Dekker won't start in P-R.

OK, 20 km cobbles according to the reports, but I can't imagine it being
Belgian grade cobbles.

I only have first-hand knowledge of Belgian cobbles, but I hear the
French ones can be somewhat of a discomfort too.

Tomorrow is going to be a long day, I'll be at a regatta from 8 to 8,
and at home there's another 6 hours of P-R on video. But I don't mind!
"Mmmmmmm, P-R video."

More like forest roads, but these can be very bad in Drente. Many flats.
Dekker doesn't like cobbles at all, but this race with finish in the town he
was born... the organizers will be delighted with such a winner.

No kidding. I thought for sure he would be riding Paris-Roubaix.

Chimay, which is Belgian (from Wallonia, the French-speaking part of
Belgium), not French.
