"my only role was to stay there"
Here at PEZ, we love the team time trial; it encompasses the very best aspects of professional bike riding; spectacle, colour, speed, skill, selflessness and the ‘techie-est’ of bicycles. After stage 4 we thought we should talk to one of Garmin’s ‘fab five’ who were second only to the mighty Astana.

In the 39km team time trial around the city of Montpellier on Tuesday Lance Armstrong took his fourth career team time trial victory in the Tour and for much of the race was tantalizingly close to a new yellow jersey, denied in the end by fractions of a second.

"being told I was riding the Tour de France added a twist to my day!"
Charly Wegelius wasn’t meant to be riding the Tour but due to a certain Mr Dekker’s “problems” back in his Rabobank days, the Englishman with the Finnish name got the call to arms. Right after stage 3 he took time to talk to Pez about weddings, stress, zoos, and, oh, yeah – Lance.

"I’d rather have this than rain!"
Those of you who were fans of the old Discovery Channel and CSC teams will know the name of Brian Bach Vandborg. Those of you who follow the World Championships will remember seeing his name go top five in the TT a few years ago, and then...injury and illness put the shackles on things.

"For us, it's actually just another race!"
One of the nicer guys in the pro peloton is Belgian star Maxime Monfort, a smart and erudite guy, whose journalistic background means he has a fuller understanding of the press pack's needs ... and maybe explains why he's so patient when confronted by a stream of hacks, myself included.
