2008 Tour winner talks racing, bikes, and chocolate

What I learned this weekend…

Roger Hammond uses a 53-11 as his gear of choice for Paris Roubaix – particularly on the last few cobbled sections.

Chocolate is Carlos Sastre's supplement of choice when riding Le Tour

Team presentations are a bit odd, good for team bonding I'm sure, and in the Cervelo Test Team's case a good chance to explain what they are about is, but the actual pesentation is still ike some sort of school prize day before anyone's won any prizes (well not this term anyway).

Off to sunny* Portugal… to meet the Tour de France winner (hopefully)

Off to the Cervelo Test Team launch. Should be fun, Carlos Sastre is on the team never spoken to a Tour de France winner before (although I was standing next to Lance Armstrong when he got off his bike after winning the 2005 Tour, but that's another story).

If you want me to ask him a question, I will - although I'm probably not going to be asking him THAT question. Thor Hushovd if you've got any questions for him fire them over too.

There shoud be some of these there too…

Cervelo R3-SL riding

When it comes to high performance, Cervélo’s R3 has more pedigree than Crufts. Super-light, super-stiff and super-strong, it’s been at the top of more wish lists than any other road bike since it was introduced in 2006, and it’s already been piloted to victory in Paris-Roubaix twice, while Carlos Sastre raced the SL version to win this year’s Tour de France… And that’s the model we’ve managed to get our grubby little bike mitts on, in its 2009 incarnation.
