Cobbled Rollers ****(01/04/10 Cycling Weekly Spoiler)****

Thought I'd put a spoiler for anyone yet to read this week's Cycling Weekly.
They have a nice little April fool about Boonen training on cobbled rollers over the winter, they look medieval and may be the way forward mind you!!
Imagine having those at your disposal over the winter though

Hmm..........looks fishy............however, I'd heard Boonen is going to ride one of these on Sunday.

I do like the idea of Boonen repairing cobbles for community service, though.

If you go the Tour of Flanders museum in Oudenaard there's a static bike on lumpy rollers that gives a similar effect - maybe Tommy uses it when its closed, funnily enough his Roubaix-winning bike was parked there too..
