It's the week after the Tour of Flanders which can only mean one thing: it's time for the Hell of the North, Paris-Roubaix. This cobbled Classic is perhaps the most iconic one-day race on the entire calendar: a brutal test of strength, technical skills, and equipment on the rough farm roads of northern France.
You'll be able to catch our preview of Sunday's men's race here on Escape very soon. For now though, let's preview the course, the contenders, and more for the fifth edition of Saturday's women's race: Paris-Roubaix Femmes avec Zwift.

As usual, here's a sneak peek at our favourites. More on these riders in a moment.
