Bradley Wiggins

Pace judgement is everything in the hour record. If you can ride 16.1 or 16.2-second laps constantly for 221 laps, and not go 15.9s or 16.4s, it's keeping it on the line every lap, lap after lap.

I went to see Ocean Colour Scene at Shepherds Bush and and felt part of something. They paved the way for me.

They do say now in cycling that there's no such thing as bad weather - it's bad clothing.

When I have to compete with John Coltrane and Miles Davis and Louie Armstrong on iTunes, which I'm doing now, that's a problem. That means that jazz is not being heard by younger audiences.

I was thinking of going to London drama schools or to New York, because France didn't accommodate the things I wanted to do in film.

Another thing that freaks me out is time. Time is like a book. You have a beginning, a middle and an end. It's just a cycle.
