The best race of the year is Paris-Roubaix, over the cobblestones, because it heightens interest. Let's face it, most professional cycling on asphalt is boring as hell, because for hours nothing happens. Gravel would add interest. It would mean the bikes would have to be more general purpose, which is a good thing -- wider tires, more forgiving frame geometry. They should throw in some single-track.
