Paris-Roubaix is not for the faint of heart, and it's not usually for the teenaged. But conventions will be bucked on Sunday as Josh Tarling clatters onto the cobblestones to become the youngest competitor at the Hell of the North in 86 years.
Not since Paul Botquint in 1937 has anyone raced Paris-Roubaix with fewer than the 19 years and 53 days Tarling has under his belt, the Frenchman having placed 22nd after taking to the start 16 days younger than Tarling.
