Paris-Roubaix Photos

Yes, I know the race was last weekend, but Versus only showed the damn thing yesterday. Unlike some blogs *cough tracko cough* I decided to hold off on putting anything up about it till now, because I didn't want to give away the ending. The following brilliant photos came from the gracious Kay. Thanks, buddy!
