I've raced against the best and I've had lots of win so that gives me confidence.

I'm definitely not the kind of guy who needs or wants to headbutt someone else to show that he's strong. That's not me.

You need to be able to observe what's going on around you and be able to react to it. You have to have the right instinct.

Congratulations to Fabian Cancellara closing his illustrious Olympic Games career with an emotional victory in the men’s time trial. Cancellara put in a storming ride in Rio to beat pre-race favourites Tom Dumoulin (Netherland) and Chris Froome (Great Britain) with his time of 1:12:15.
