24 hour team relay
If you don’t fancy 28 hours, there is the chance to participate in a team relay, which, over the last few years, the French have introduced in many of their 24 hour events. The relay has become a hotly contested event in itself. Roubaix is no exception - each year more teams enter. In 2009 there were 4 French teams and one GB team (The Lightning Ladies). 2010 should see two GBR teams participate and a Dutch team (composed of two Centurions!) to challenge the French. Vivre Angleterre! Update: see list of teams
