"It was a friday and the Vuelta a Colombia passed in front of my house. My dad took me to the side of the street to see the cyclist. These guys, on their bikes, so fast, all burned by the sun and you could see the veins in their legs. They looked so cool. That image stayed in my head. It was 38 years ago."
"Bogotá is a cosmopolitan city. You have good food, cool places to go, everything. And if you are a cyclist you have altitude. The city is at 2600 meters above sea level, but when you go to the mountains, you are at 3000 meters above sea level."
