Photo taken on April 13, 1980 of Belgian cyclist Roger De Vlaeminck at the 78th edition of the Paris-Roubaix race. Roger De Vlaeminck, the holder of the record of victories in Paris-Roubaix, is likely to be overtaken by the one he often criticized in the past, his compatriot Tom Boonen, candidate of the April 8, 2012 to a fourth success. The "gypsy", now age 64, has imposed on four occasions on the cobblestones between 1972 and 1977, at a time of fierce competition. (Merckx, Maertens, Godefroot, Moser, etc).
