I don’t know if I can pick just one. If I had to, I think it would be:

Oh boy. I do love quotes!

Here are some of my favourites:
“But at the end of the day, it’s only the Tour de France.” – Bradley Wiggins
“Second place is the first loser.” -Heinrich Haussler, after MSR
“Who said that? Internet forum people?” – Mark Cavendish, after his stage 11 win in the tour in response to “Plenty of people said it wouldn’t suit you, this uphill finish

“It looks like talking, but it’s actually only words that come out.” – Andy Schleck, asked what he and Frank were talking about on Mt. Ventoux
“You have to earn your place at the front on the climbs… They don’t really want you there if they don’t think you deserve to be there. No one wants to be on your wheel you go pop because it means more work for them.” – Bradley Wiggins
“Every time someone gets dropped you think ‘well I lasted longer than him.’ It’s like a ramp test or the beep test. You don’t think you can possibley last any longer, but you . And every time someone drops out, you get a buzz out of it.” – Bradley Wiggins
Good stuff.

“Everyone has the will to win. It’s the will to work that makes winners.” – Joe Friel
“Pressure makes diamonds… it’s party of the game.” – Allen Lim
“If a normal person this pain in their legs, they go to the hospital.”
