I know this is an old video, but Im just seeing it now in 2022. Bob, you are the best! I always love to hear you tell stories, and in my estimate, you are extremely under-appreciated for your hard- earned achievements.
Bob!! I met you in early nineties if I remember well enough, in front of the main lodge of Mt.Sainte Anne before the Grundig World cup....i think I was in a state of shock since I csme from MTB but was reading cycle sport while In my spare time on my families farm upstate N.Y. . I recalled your legendary picture in the backdrop and was thrilled to have met you that day. I like you in your early days would travel to races with no money and would barely get by on those long weekends. Thank you for your contributions to cycling. ....it may have been lance that put the world in touch with the Tour and cyclings healthy lifestyle , but it was your inner drive that gave us a world to change for the better ... in deep respect . Tim Lansing
As a kid I watched these spring classics with complete and undivided attention, I remember watching this race vividly. Paris-Roubaix is still my fave bike race to watch with a huge tradition and much suffering. Good on Ya Bob for sharing this memory. Hope to see more in the future.
I remember that race, i was 20 back then, they never got demol and his co rider. Once in the rear in Paris Roubaix you´re out. I was born 25 km to the finish in 🇧🇪 and man oh i love that race.
Bob, I used to have to wait for my Velo News and other magazines to find out what was happening to you guys in Europe. Now i get race updates from the saddle every 3 minutes on Twitter! What a crazy new world and I'm glad you're still in cycling....it's clear that you still love it.
This was a great clip. I have one of your old Motorola bikes - though the paint was far gone enough that I got it redone in more basic livery :( It introduced me to many interesting people over the years who commented on it. The most relevant here occurred on ABQ’s main bike path. I came up behind some guy on a bike and rang my bell to pass. No response. Got a little closer rang the bell again, still no response. Finally I well out, “ON YOUR LEFT!!!” The guy twitches and moves over to let me by. As I pass he says, “I know that bike!” Turns out he had been your mechanic. We had a great time riding up the rest of the trail with him regaling me with tales of those days.
Bobke...that photo is a classic! I still have the Winning mag that featured this photo as a 2 page spread introducing the spring classics. It was very inspiring to the 20 year old racer I was then.
Remember watching the John Tesh drama filled replay that year. Decided right then and there I had to see it live. Took me eight years to get there. I have loved your story telling since reading your book. Keep it up!
I love watching the Tour, every year. Your commentary is always exciting also. It just wouldn't be the same without you on the tv. I hope you continue for many, many years to come Bobke.
I'm glad this segment popped up on my UA-cam window! Great bit of history. Looking forward to the NBC Sports replay coverage of the race tonight. I've got my Chimay cooling in the frig.
Knowing Bobke got 25th at only 5 minutes back makes me respect him even more than I did after seeing images of him soldiering on up the Passo Gavia on that ridiculously cold, snowy day in the '88 Giro.
Bob's passion for cycling oozes out every time he is commentating. Very interesting stories. Made me laugh out. Looking forward to your coverage of the Paris-Roubaix.
Doubt if you'll see this now but thought I would share. Showed up for a bike ride, not a race in Hawaii in 89. I actually wore a 7-11 jersey that day. A couple guys behind me said sarcastically..."Hey look it's Bob Roll". True story. Nice long ride on Oahu. Enjoyed watching this video! 😎🤙
Bob, I have that poster. One of my all-time favorite pics. What always strikes me is the contrast between the mud & the very white of your hat & jersey. Always makes me giggle. 😄
Bob...love your channel. Met you a few years ago in Castle Rock...my wife's dad, Bill Simon lives in Hermosa...next time we are coming to visit would love to meet up and have a cup of coffee with you at Bread or somewhere of your choice. Keep the video's rolliing..loving them. Great story about P-R...
Love watching you and hearing your commentary. You are a one of a kind cyclist. Thanks Bob! This is my first video on your channel. Not sure how I missed. Old age I guess.👍🏻👍🏻 Actually as I watch you are doing Stage 2 of the 2021 La Vuelta! Doing a great job with Christian.
Thanks Bob for all the great stories. I raced as a jr. in the 70's in northern Ca Bay Area. I'm always wondering what tires you pro's used. I had silk Clements back then.Man were they expensive back then. Anyway keep on telling all the tales of your life, I believe we all think they are interesting.
Just came across this channel, LOVE IT!!! Love you bob, i'm subscribed now and looking forward to more of these. Your stories have always been THE BEST and i'm loving you and phil's coverage of the tour right now as usual
Thinking of your closing comments, I am the happy owner of one of your Motorola frames from the '91 season. The other came up for sale on e-bay about a decade ago. Given how well this one has served me I gave some serious thought to getting the other. Sadly, it would not serve you for photo shoots since after many years and somewhere around 100,000 miles of commuting, fun riding and let-not-discuss-the-results-racing there was nothing left of the original paint so it is no longer in Motorola livery and few of the original components are left. Over the years that bike has made me many friends. The best was one day on the bike path I came up on some guy, rang my bell: no response. Yelled at the top of my lungs, "ON YOUR LEFT!" and saw he had earbuds in. As I passed, he hollered out, "I know that bike!" Turns out he had been your wrench in Santa Fe and was also on his way home from work. We had a nice ride the rest of the way what with his stories and all.
I'm 62 now and back then all I had to go on, cycling-news-wise, was the 'bicycle magazine', but that kept me in the loop. Glad to see you're still slogging around, and on UA-cam to boot! Cheers, oh yeah, try staying around 14% body fat and stay away from those delicious cheeseburgers -- just kidding....
Bob Roll: how many amazing stories does this guy have? These were early days indeed. They may have had a pro-looking kit, but this 7-Eleven squad were true pioneers of American cyclists invading a European sport. Thank you Bob!
I think it was the 1987 Mountain Challenge on Mt Diablo and I got to the front for the start...you came up along side me. I was only 17 racing in Juniors and I was pretty freaked out. I stayed with ya for the first 3 miles then pulled over and puked. hahaha...but I can always say I rode along side the great Bob Roll for a bit up that climb. Cheers! Love your work on TV
my man...your vids are outstandingly good....so happy to have found your style....gonna try and share as much as possible and make you rich beyond your wildest dreams.....NOT...just rich enough to keep makin vids....legend...night night from ireland..
Do you remember that the photo was on the cover of a mountain bike magazine years ago? It said on the cover something like, "we admit it, roadies are cool" - awesome!
Awesome stuff, Bobke! I'm near to you generationally and a recent convert to cycling and appreciate some backward-looking perspective on the sport. I've enjoyed watching the classics, and I'm sure they've always been exciting, even before so much technology came into the sport. Kudos to Graham Watson … he knew that puddle was destined to find a rider!
Love that story. Could you maybe do a "History of Cycling" series? You are a great story-teller, and it's important for newbie cycling enthusiasts to appreciate the customs, traditions, and colourful past of the sport. Skipping the whole doping bit would be ok. 👍
Being older than dirt I still remember that UC Berkeley team riding up Tunnel Rd. Passing me and you riding by them so easily that they appeared to be rank amateurs. I often wonder what you could have done if you had the drive to be a team leader.
Greetings from Alberta Canada Bob. Any plans to talk about your days racing off road? I recall seeing a pic of you racing for Proflex. Any stories or pics would be great to hear and see. Take care Glen
Hey Bob ... Love the channel and the content! Your new posts are the highlight of my internet'ing. This is another great post and makes me wonder in races like Paris Roubaix, accelerated your love of mountain biking? The classics especially the cobbles, are so amazing to watch...infact I'm going to see if there is any of the 88 pr available on youtube :)
Hi Bob,,,,,can you talk about the gears and tubing that were used on the bikes back in the day,,,,I still have my schwinn prologue sign by Raul Alcala....but it's nothing closed to what you had....cycling was the reason I migrated to Colorado. Thank you for the memories , you are the best. Cafe de Colombia racing team....
I like Oscar Freire's story about Paris Roubaix, being on his first Spanish team they asked for volunteers to ride it he went with no recon and on race day on the first section he couldn't believe the peloton had turned down that bad road, he was immediately shelved off the back and crashed out on the second sector never riding it again!
Bobke, Great stuff! Can you talk a bit about the history of the tires use in the cobble classics? Why did it take so lone to figure out bigger is better.
When I was a teen in the 70s, I wished I could afford the 29mm Clement Paris Roubaix Seta tubulars they used. I had a pair once, and they just felt faster than anything: faster than the Clement Criterium Seta 24mm, which was 230gm. The Paris Roubaix Seta (silk) was 290gm. So they did know that bigger is better. But until the integration of wide & deep profile rims, there was a significant aero drag penalty for a fat tire. The boundary layer immediately separated at the widest point of the tire. Today, the air flow can designed to remain attached most of the way down the deep section profiles, producing much less drag because it detaches where the wake is only 8 or 10mm wide, instead of 29. This matters far more at 35 mph than at 20, where fatter is better on a really rough road even with shallow rims. Taking energy from forward propulsion to shake the bike and rider vertically on cobbles is not only painful to the rider, it re-allocates several dozen watts. Why weren't rims better integrated back then? Aerodynamicists certainly understood the basic issues, but aluminum rim extrusion technology was much more primitive. Carbon rims didn't exist.
Hey Bob- I know where one of your old Bikes is-- You may not remember, but I sold it for you out of Diablo Bike when I worked there.. Back in your Pleasant Hill days..In fact- its that exact frame you are riding in that picture! BTW- you still owe me my 10% lol... Mike K
Bob: Now that Universal Sports Network is out of business do you know of any other regular TV source that covers the pro races. NBCSN does a very few races mainly the tour, i miss USN having a race almost every week. I really enjoyed your coverage of the races with Phil and Paul, thanks.
I remember watching the CBS coverage of that race very well. I actually taped it and still have the VHS tape but no VCR to watch it. I do have a question for you Bob. Is the rider that you are talking to earlier Joseph Parkin? Also, even if it's him or not what type of conversations do you guys have with riders of different teams? Actually that was 2 questions. I always enjoy your commentary and statements. Continue the good job.
Hey Buub key TV. Snot em zin nose . I love the advanced steal technology. It Just survives over the pave!! Thank the Goddess you had those super high tech cobble stone bicycles. Gravel bicycles, Mountain bicycles, and Road bicycles would not have enjoyed victory! Oh and don't forget Kid's!!! No helmet. More Aero!!! + More photo op's!
Bobke, I will be in northern France at the same time as this year's Paris Roubaix. If you had to recommend one place from which to spectate, either a) Arenberg Forest b) Carrefour de l'arbre, or c) the velodrome, which one would you choose?
Didn't know you were a mudder! Love the old films. You were and still are a character. Love it.
Bobke, I race Cal/Nevada 4 back in the late seventies, early eighties, and all I can say is YOU ARE THE MAN! Stay SAFE!
Cool! Always wondered if racers used 32 or 36 spokes on their bikes. Straight gauge or double butted spokes? Thanks!
I know this is an old video, but Im just seeing it now in 2022. Bob, you are the best! I always love to hear you tell stories, and in my estimate, you are extremely under-appreciated for your hard- earned achievements.
Take this to heart, Bob: You are a LEGEND and I love these stories. Keep up the great work.
25th Place !!!??!!!!!? Awesome
Plus the 4 crashes and 5 flats.
You killed it, man !!
Bob!! I met you in early nineties if I remember well enough, in front of the main lodge of Mt.Sainte Anne before the Grundig World cup....i think I was in a state of shock since I csme from MTB but was reading cycle sport while In my spare time on my families farm upstate N.Y. .
I recalled your legendary picture in the backdrop and was thrilled to have met you that day. I like you in your early days would travel to races with no money and would barely get by on those long weekends.
Thank you for your contributions to cycling. ....it may have been lance that put the world in touch with the Tour and cyclings healthy lifestyle , but it was your inner drive that gave us a world to change for the better ...
in deep respect .

Love the juxtaposition between yesterday and today. Keep it coming, Bobke!
+maria race ain't dat the way life goes
I remember that race, i was 20 back then, they never got demol and his co rider. Once in the rear in Paris Roubaix you´re out. I was born 25 km to the finish in 🇧🇪 and man oh i love that race.
Cycling for Success: another iconic poster with Bobke, I added his autograph from Interbike into a dual display at home, outstanding
Remember watching this over and over at Two Wheel Transit Authority in Huntington Beach, CA.
Talk about memories. We didn't get to see that many classics back then. Thanks for sharing Bob.
+James Bland thanks for watching
Fantastic 👌
Great storytelling from Bob, as usual. One of the best at what he does.
Bob, I used to have to wait for my Velo News and other magazines to find out what was happening to you guys in Europe. Now i get race updates from the saddle every 3 minutes on Twitter! What a crazy new world and I'm glad you're still in cycling....it's clear that you still love it.
25 th is a grate place , congratulatios
Nice explanation about the picture .
Regards from Spain
This was a great clip. I have one of your old Motorola bikes - though the paint was far gone enough that I got it redone in more basic livery :( It introduced me to many interesting people over the years who commented on it. The most relevant here occurred on ABQ’s main bike path. I came
up behind some guy on a bike and rang my bell to
pass. No response. Got a little closer rang the bell again, still no response.
Finally I well out, “ON YOUR LEFT!!!” The guy twitches and moves over to let me
by. As I pass he says, “I know that bike!” Turns out he had been your mechanic. We had a great time riding up
the rest of the trail with him regaling me with tales of those days.
I just got a flashback riding on my rollers in December watching this video on my vcr... training before I moved to France the next year to race:)
hey! swell video, thank you. I like the combo of photo and a short story.
Grande Bob...grande ciclista .un saluto dall'Italia
Bobke...that photo is a classic! I still have the Winning mag that featured this photo as a 2 page spread introducing the spring classics. It was very inspiring to the 20 year old racer I was then.
John S are you from Medina,Ohio
Chris Lothes Nope...

I love watching the Tour, every year. Your commentary is always exciting also. It just wouldn't be the same without you on the tv. I hope you continue for many, many years to come Bobke.

Watching the 1988 Roubaix was what got me totally into cycling. Love the Hell of the North
Schwinn super sport was my weapon of choice, a very tough bike that stood up to my legs and riding style in the late 70s .
Great Description of the photo. I have the Paris Roubaix coffee table book and the photo made its way onto the pages. Great piece Bobke!
Bob's passion for cycling oozes out every time he is commentating. Very interesting stories. Made me laugh out. Looking forward to your coverage of the Paris-Roubaix.
Good time that must be a awesome memory

Love the story. I think it's cool you were part of all that. USA is proud of you.
Thanks Bob awesome story keep up.
Bob, I have that poster. One of my all-time favorite pics. What always strikes me is the contrast between the mud & the very white of your hat & jersey. Always makes me giggle. 😄
+Stevie Nellor i was saving that hat in my pocket until i saw Graham Watson ;-)
+BobkeTV LOL. Did Graham pay you a commission to keep that cap clean?
I love these videos of your career. Keep them coming.
Bob...love your channel. Met you a few years ago in Castle Rock...my wife's dad, Bill Simon lives in Hermosa...next time we are coming to visit would love to meet up and have a cup of coffee with you at Bread or somewhere of your choice. Keep the video's rolliing..loving them.
Great story about P-R...
Thanks Bob!!
I'm a big fan for a long time.
But placing high at PR? Several times?!
I had no idea!
Kudos
Wish I had found this sooner
Amazing shot whit you in in Bob! Such good memories :)
Always the Best my friend...missing you a lot
Awesomeness! Enjoyed watching and hearing the story!
I love you Bobke!
Thanks for sharing that story Bob, classic.
Fantastic stuff mate. Thoroughly enjoyed:) subbed
The picture that got so many of us into cycling. Seems you were ahead of the time starting the sport of mountain biking.
Love watching you and hearing your commentary. You are a one of a kind cyclist. Thanks Bob! This is my first video on your channel. Not sure how I missed. Old age I guess.👍🏻👍🏻 Actually as I watch you are doing Stage 2 of the 2021 La Vuelta! Doing a great job with Christian.
Great story,, thanks for sharing it. Once again, I really enjoyed your commentary during the Tour de France this year.
Love seeing your rides!
Great story. You tell them well.
Thanks Bob for all the great stories. I raced as a jr. in the 70's in northern Ca Bay Area. I'm always wondering what tires you pro's used. I had silk Clements back then.Man were they expensive back then. Anyway keep on telling all the tales of your life, I believe we all think they are interesting.

Love the that story. Thanks for sharing, always interesting to hear from the pro riders themselves! I have followed pro-racing on Tv ever since 1986.

So glad I watched this! Thanks so much Bobke. Btw I have that same Eddy Merckx bike that is in photo front rider

I had a yellow 1972 Bottecchia Special. I rode it ragged.
What a great story.

Riding Roubaix, no helmet. Dudes got balls.
I remember watching the CBS coverage of that race very well. I actually taped it and still have the VHS tape but no VCR to watch it. I do have a question for you Bob.

How about adding that photo to your 'swag for sale'? I know I'd love to have one! Maybe even an autographed copy! How 'bout it Bob?
You should frame it
"So I went into the archives...deep in the recesses of the man-cave..." 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I wonder what the reactions of the other riders were, when they saw you go into the mud...
I have read the Roger de Vlaeminck only flatted in his last Roubaix
that Roger de Vlaeminck
look at those slow cadences!
Hey Buub key TV. Snot em zin nose . I love the advanced steal technology. It Just survives over the pave!! Thank the Goddess you had those super high tech cobble stone bicycles. Gravel bicycles, Mountain bicycles, and Road bicycles would not have enjoyed victory! Oh and don't forget Kid's!!! No helmet. More Aero!!! + More photo op's!
Bobke, I will be in northern France at the same time as this year's Paris Roubaix. If you had to recommend one place from which to spectate, either a) Arenberg Forest b) Carrefour de l'arbre, or c) the velodrome, which one would you choose?
+Ryan Kendrick velodrome is great, comfy seats, jumbotron and beer!!
Wow, no helmets even in Paris-Roubaix
Hi Bobke, In your heydey did you ever train at night?
