Paris - Roubaix 2018 - Getting there
Good morning,
So I am getting wed in April and looking to the vast selection of beers and cycling around April for a stag trip. Has anyone any advice or been last year? I dont think i would partake in sportive but would like to watch the hell of the north.
Advice appreciated, cheaper and less time consuming the better for me.

Most certainly report it to the licensing authority, they may (rather than 'will) take it more seriously than the Police.

Paris Roubaix is a great event but its not easy to watch, its a point-to-point race over a long distance. If you've got some nous and a car you can maybe catch a two sectors of cobbles but its not easy moving about on race day. Better to do it the local way - identify a sector, get there early and take a lot of beer.
You could consider Flanders, the course covers a smaller area making it easier to see the riders a few times. And the hills mean they're going slow enough to actually recognise them.
A trip to ether would be great fun though, especially if you take a bike for the day before.
