My attitude is that, if you have nothing to hide, why not show it?
~ Bradley Wiggins
I wanted to give an honest insight into a consuming Tour. It's turned out pretty interesting because there aren't many books out there documenting someone's failure.
I've always shied away from computers, the Internet and all that. I'm a bit more traditional, really - pick up a newspaper, pick up a phone.
Things change; your priorities change in life. So I'd never think of riding 100 miles on Christmas Day now, because I've got two kids, and it's selfish.
Everything I achieve affects my family as well, and suddenly, my kids' dad became the most famous man in the country for a couple of weeks.
When you're in the heat of the moment, you need guys you can trust and who have been there for you.
When you get into the final week of the Tour de France, it becomes a different kind of race. As the distance and the fatigue really tell, that is when it becomes a proper test of everyone's fitness.
