But I never associated the Granon with this episode, it was anecdotal. Never that day did I say to myself “Shit, I won’t wear yellow anymore”, I had only followed the team’s strategy for Greg who was to win the Tour de France that year. We had discovered a really very hard climb which had hurt. For the record, we did not know the Col du Granon before arriving there on this stage, it was the first time we had cycled through it. During the training camp the previous winter, we had done everything on foot, I remember we had already had a lot of it.“
