"It was not an easy day in the end. It was windy for most of the stage, but on the last 20 kilometres there was a bit more of a headwind. It was quite restful in between accelerations. I’ve been able to relax and eat well, and later I will catch a good massage. So that’s one stage less to worry about. I have gone to the Mont Ventoux only once, just before this Tour de France. There were so many fans there on a normal day that I can’t imagine how crowded it will be tomorrow. I’m looking forward to racing there. It will be a long, hard, hot day. We will see how the hot weather affects me tomorrow. I’ve trained for it, so I feel prepared."
