Marin - Roubaix Route Released

On Eve of MWC Opener, PHRO Makes Course Changes Official

With a scant 4 days remaining until the annual rite of spring, the Marin World Cup, PHRO President and Chairman of Sitting In Chairs Joos Litvalk today announced the office race route for this years gladiatorial role of the dice known as Marin-Roubaix. While following the traditional counter-clockwise direction around the Camp Chinois, there are a couple of minor changes from years past.

Most notably and perhaps disappointingly, is the removal of the Pau Clouf section of golf cart track that has traditionally served as a bit of an amuse-bouche for the riders before they tackled the famed pavé of the route. While always a popular section, a United Union of Greenskeepers strike has closed Pau Clouf for all sporting endeavors. Rumours that former fake-race Campionissimo, Jens Wynachtskenhoff engineered the strike in an attempt to gain publicity for his soon to be released memoir "L'Homme Grande Terrible" are, as yet, unconfirmed.

To fill the void left by the departure of Pau Clouf, a new sector, Pointe Camp Chinois, has been added as the first sector of pavé  bringing the total to 8. Included at the last minute in 2012, "le Pointe" as it's know to the locals, will certainly serve as a fitting first course.

As in years past, Marin-Roubaix will start at the former meeting hall of the Hushvod Boosters Club, at 1000 Bst in San Rafaaeel at 3:30pm and will finish with 1 1/2 laps of the track at L'Ecole d'San Rafaaeel stadium.
