Tour de France winner Chris Froome (Team Sky) posted a photo on Twitter this morning from a training ride with the message “We were all out this morning 👊 #offseasontraining”
Amongst the other cyclists in the photo are Froome’s team-mate Geraint Thomas and Philippe Gilbert (BMC Racing) with Fabian Cancellara (Trek Factory Racing) sitting towards the back. There are also a number of other riders from Team Sky, Trek and IAM cycling.
Numerous other pros have based themselves in Monaco in recent years including Matt Goss (MTN-Qhubeka), Sam Bennett (Bora-Argon 18) and the Orica-GreenEdge pair of Simon Gerrans and Michael Matthews which results in some pretty decent training groups on the Côte d’Azur.

They may be the best in the world and get to have fun riding together sometimes but we have an everyday honor they could never fathom…building a TDF.I think you know what song is playing in my subconscious.
Some weekend group ride tho…
