It's hard to put into words, really, how proud I am and great it is to represent Wales because, in cycling, it's a little-known country, so it's nice to put it on the map.
I have come to see what the Tour is about, and it has been harder than I imagined. You don't realise what it is like until you actually compete.
I had a normal, nice upbringing in Cardiff.
I never thought I would grow up writing a book.
Of course you want a better culture of cycling in the U.K. Better roads. More respect.
I've won the Tour. But no, I don't feel I'm a celebrity.
I don't mind it when people come up to me and say, 'Well done.' That's lovely. The bit that's weird is stuff like... I've had a load of eBay people hounding me. Just sort of getting you to sign stuff which they can then sell.
I'm a big fan of Anthony Joshua.
My wife, she puts up with a lot: we're training hard, you're tired, you're not eating a lot, so you get a bit grumpy, so she does put up with a lot - fair play.
I like riding for five or six hours, then sitting on the sofa staring at the TV. It's my normal.
In Britain, we have this attitude that people are one-hit wonders. If it proves that way, I'd rather have had that one hit than not at all.
