David Veilleux on his remarkable day in Roubaix

Team Europcar rider says he would have been happy just finishing the race.

Team Europcar rider David Veilleux says he would have been happy just finishing his first Paris-Roubaix Sunday. Instead, the 23-year-old from Quebec had the best result for a North American – crossing the finish line in 25th place after getting himself into a key move that stayed away from the pack. The four-time under-23 national time trial champion spoke with us via Skype from just outside Brussels this week to give us his thoughts on the historic race and what’s in store for the rest of this season.
