I am really excited about being an ambassador of the Jaguar Academy of Sport at a time when British sport is so huge. The work the academy does to support and inspire the very best of British talent is fantastic. I can’t wait to meet and work with the Rising Stars to help support them on their sporting ...
We've got five world tour teams signed up for the race, and we're hoping to have Bradley Williams and Mark Cavendish, who have ridden the tour before.
I would love Dave to be in the Olympic Games ... He is a loyal team mate, he is very physically good and experienced. He would make a massive difference to our team.
You know you're in a great team when you have a world champion (in the shape of Mark Cavendish) riding on the front for you.
I would love Dave to be on the start line
He was team captain when Mark Cavendish won the World Championships so I don't think there is going to be any issue in terms of incorporating these athletics back into the team.
Unlike Victoria Pendleton, I'm not in it to be the face of my sport, I'm in it to achieve
I have been told that if Mark Cavendish doesn't win the gold that all eyes will be on the pool. So it's like 'Mark, you'd better win that gold!'
We want to win the team time trial as well and hopefully that will get us the pink jersey. If we could achieve that it would be a massive honour for the team
There’s one name that keeps coming up: Sagan ... I saw a good [Oscar] Freire, [Mark Cavendish] was good in the sprints in the first part of the week. [Tom] Boonen isn’t here, but I hear he is strong. There will be many riders on the list for San Remo. It’s a race you can win when you’re not 100 percent....
We've got a good squad to go and win stages. Geraint, Pete and Swifty have just come off the track so they should have that explosive power which will be important in the first week, and the rest of the team have all done well in the Classics.
The Giro is one of my favourite races of the season and I'm very happy to be riding it
It is not an easy task at all but it is definitely possible ... I wouldn’t be at Team Sky if I didn’t think it was possible. I want to be part of that team that makes history.

I want to be part of that team that makes history
It is the biggest team in the world
I was isolated before the Monteberg ... It’s as simple as one wheel; someone loses the wheel in front of you, and you’re gapped.
This year I'm in great form, the team's going really well and in good spirits and I think we are strong enough to deal with everything that's thrown at us
It's the easiest race to finish and the toughest to win ... It's beautiful and absurd. You start pedaling and it's cold and wintry, then you go over the Turchino, go into a tunnel and when you come out everything is sky blue and there's the sea, and in an instant it's spring.
Milan-San Remo is the perfect example of an Italian style race - it's kind of like an opera
It's a special race, a beautiful race, and I have always said to win in the world champions jersey would be even more special
Ride of the day.. No, make that ride of the millennium, goes to GreenEDGE's Svein Tuft. 200km ALONE controlling the peloton! Respect
It was a difficult day on paper but it wasn't too fast for the guys so there were a lot of fresh legs and it was important for me to have the team around me, keeping me at the front
Would love to swim like Michael Phelps, cycle like Mark Cavendish and run like Haile Gebrselassie
