The Venue

Located just 13km from Lille, the town of Roubaix is easily accessible from France and further afield

170km Distance

The premium 170km event is back in 2025. However, the number of places is limited since Paris–Roubaix Femmes will be taking place on the same course and day as the Paris–Roubaix Challenge. The 170km distance is reserved for seasoned cyclists. The average speed needed to reach the Velodrome by 4 pm is 30km/h on asphalt roads and 15km/h on cobblestones (the Challenge covers about 50km of cobblestones). If you are unable to maintain this speed, the local authorities will ask you to leave the course and find your own route back to Roubaix.
