"Of course we had to play the gamble with the weather and it was a little tough to sit on the bus for so long to wait for my ride but if I look around now, it's golden, bright, sunshine-filled end to the day. It was the right decision to go late. I followed one of my team-mates to see how it was with the wet roads because yesterday I trained on the course but it was hot and the conditions were completely different. You have to adapt your approach to the situation but I managed to do that and I'm happy with the result.
"It's a nice round number: 10 minutes for the win. I like that. There are a few interesting day ahead of us but I like wearing the yellow jersey and we have a good team that can defend it.
"I'm proud of what I've done today, there was no sense of revenge I just wanted to go the fastest and I did just that. It's important to try and hold onto the jersey until the Arenberg (in stage three) but first there is Brussels and Spa and it's not flat at the end of stage two... but it's the goal to try and wear the yellow jersey on the cobbles."
