My Strength Was That I Am More

Everybody Tells Me That I Never Look As If I'm Suffering. But, When I Watch Videotapes Of A Race, I Always Remember The Pain I Had To Endure.

To Be Free And To Live A Free Life - That Is The Most Beautiful Thing There Is.

I Didn't Feel I Had To Prove Anything More.

My Strength Was That I Am More Balanced And Calmer Than Most Other Riders.

I Inherited That Calm From My Father, Who Was A Farmer. You Sow, You Wait For Good Or Bad Weather, You Harvest, But Working Is Something You Always Need To Do.
