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

Cervelo downtube logoOff 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…
And some of these…
Oh, and possibly the odd one of these…
Hope so.
road.cc's founder and first editor, nowadays to be found riding a spreadsheet. Tony's journey in cycling media started in 1997 as production editor and then deputy editor of Total Bike, acting editor of Total Mountain Bike and then seven years as editor of Cycling Plus. He launched his first cycling website - the Cycling Plus Forum at the turn of the century. In 2006 he left C+ to head up the launch team for Bike Radar which he edited until 2008, when he co-launched the multi-award winning road.cc - finally handing on the reins in 2021 to Jack Sexty. His favourite ride is his ‘commute’ - which he does most days inc weekends and he’s been cycle-commuting since 1994. His favourite bikes are titanium and have disc brakes, though he'd like to own a carbon bike one day.

if he misses the shleck brothers? Not sure that I've spelled that right, but it's Friday night and I've had a couple of glasses with my dinner, for purely medicinal purposes you understand
Ask him if he feels like he will be the patron in the Tour this summer (as defending champion) or if Lance will be should he ride.
Will do. Young Alberto might feel that he should be patron too - as this is his first defence of his '07 win.
Not sure about that. I wasn't overly convinced by Mr Armstrong in his interview last night.
"If we get to Monaco and if Alberto is strong and if there are riders stronger than me then I will be a domestique"
