It Doesn't Get Any Easier; You Just

Racing Is A Very Selfish, Self-centred, Self-glorifying Thing. My Wife's Life For 14 Years Was Centered Around Me. It Was All About Me. It Was All For My Ego.

The Most Important Decision I Ever Made In My Career Was To Live My Life In Sports As Honestly And Ethically As Possible. Never Having Compromised My Values Allows Me To Look Back On My Life With No Regrets And Feel Satisfaction In What I Was Able To Accomplish.

The Key Is Being Able To Endure Psychologically. When You're Not Riding Well, You Think, Why Suffer? Why Push Yourself For Four Or Five Hours? The Mountains Are The Pinnacle Of Suffering

I Know It Is Possible To Win The Tour Without Taking Anything.

It Never Gets Easier; You Just Go Faster.
