Cycling News readers voted this week to decide which edition of Paris-Roubaix (open in new tab) was the best of the past 30 years.
Voting is leaning toward recent memory, with high-resolution images from the past decade still seared into the minds of cycling fans.
It was Peter Sagan's (open in new tab) comeback from behind to win Paris-Roubaix in 2018. The Slovakian star's spectacular escape had been overtaken in previous rounds by the lone attack of 2010's Fabian Cancellara, but when push came to shove, the triple world champion's fans rushed to get him in the final vote.
Matt Heyman's incredible sprint victory in 2016 (open in new tab), which stopped Tom Boonen's record for most Paris-Roubaix wins, also continued to dominate the voting, as it should.
As was the case on the Roubaix velodrome, the Australian crushed the competition in comparison to Cancellara's first win in 2006 and Boonen's dominant performance in 2008.
Who will win the overall best edition title of Paris-Roubaix?
We all think we are winners, but the rest is up to you to decide.
