The first edition of the women's Paris-Roubaix race last year silenced most of the sceptics and attitudes to women's cycling are changing, the race director of the Tour de France Femmes said on Friday.
On a rainy, muddy day in October 2021, Lizzie Deignan emerged as the first winner of the women's Paris-Roubaix after mastering the slippery cobbled roads in northern France that men have raced on for more than one hundred years.
"All we have to do is show . The last sceptics who think women have nothing to do on a bike will change their mind after seeing the race from the road side or after turning on their TV. That's all there's to do. "I'm not the only woman who can talk about cycling. There's a lot of women who can be involved," she said.
While she does not regret ending her career in 2015, the 30-year-old Rousse, also the deputy director of the Tour de La Provence, would be forgiven for wondering what could have happened if women's cycling had been further developed during her racing years.
