Press Conference: CONNOR SWIFT
What was it like winning your first GC?
It was pretty different actually, because I never even won a stage or anything like that, just nationals and Tro-Bro Léon. I normally cross the line first and then have all those emotions, whereas going into the leader’s jersey in this race, I didn’t want to celebrate or think about it too much as I still had a stage to go. Having the leader’s jersey inside the race was super stressful because the break was taking ages to go, we had other GC guys attacking, and obviously you’re relying purely on your team to pull off the win.
