 Avila. For Carlos Sastre the cold is no reason for staying at home. Nor the rain. Nor the snow. “We are used to going out training in these temperatures, although the winter this year is particularly harsh. But all the same, the hams will cure well in these temperatures and I hope that they will also be good for my legs", said the Cervélo team leader. “I am going out on four-hour rides and some days I’m doing six hours with temperatures that at times reach below zero. I also have increasingly less fat to protect me from the cold. Luckily, the clothes we use protect us quite well and keep the body heat inside”, he added. Carlos Sastre is making the most of the fact that the Volta a Catalunya (his debut race this season), is still far off “to try out new material and to do some intense time trial riding sessions”. “I have to work on my position to get better results from my efforts", concluded the winner of the 2008 Tour. |
