After a week of post-168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Tour de France Criteriums, 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Chris Froome safely navigated one final racing appearance at the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:RideLondon Classic and will now jet off to Rio for the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Olympic Games where the Team Sky rider is aiming for gold in the road race and time trial. In 2012, Froome was second to teammate 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Bradley Wiggins in the Tour and claimed bronze ꦍin the time trial a week la💝ter.

"Thankfully, we are going out there tomorrow morning, so we are going to have a few days to acclimatise and get ready before the race," Froome said on the start line in regards to his travel plans for the Olympic Games before finishin❀g in 41st place.&nbꦰsp;

While several athletes have raised concerns over♎ the Rio climate and effectꦫs of travel, Froome brushed aside any suggestions the weather will be a deciding factor.

"Hopefully, temperature-wise it shouldn't be too different to here. It's hot today and we have had a hot Tour d𝔍e France, so hopefully our bodies will be used to the heat already," he said. "It's more about getting used to the time zones, but four hours' difference [to Central European Time] is not massive."

Last month, Fr꧟oome sealed back-to-back Tour de France titles and the third of his career following his debut success in 2013. Froome has repeated his goals for the 2016 season were the Tour and Olympic Games and having me𝓰t the first of those ambitions, is focused on securing gold.

Froome 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:visited Rio in November to reconnoitre the courses alongside Great Britain Elite road coach Rod Ellingworth and Great Britain mechanic Alan Williams but will do further training on the Brazilian roads to 🍬familiarise himself before𝓡 the August 6 road race and August 10 time trial

"I imagine ౠwe will do a few good training days out on the cour꧑se and get a good look at what we are up against," Froome said.

"I went out there in November. It's tough; it's a really tough course. It is a mix𒁃 of everything. It is predominantly a climbers' course, but also tho♔se first few laps with the cobbles are definitely going to mix things up a bit."

While Froome has proven his capabilities as a grand tour rider with three Tour wins, the 31-year-old hasn't replicated his form in one-day races with all 36 of his wins coming from stage races. Third place at the 2008 Giro dell'Appennino is arguab💧ly Froome's best one-day result while from from six starts, he is yet to finish a road Worlds.

However, Froome is co𝔍nfident he can adapt to the different racing style and showcaไse his aggressive approach as he did at the Tour with late attacks on stages 8 and 11.

"It's very different. In the Tour you are thinking very much about riding each stage in the most conservative way possible, staying at the front not to lose time, whereas for a one-day race like Rio, it's basically about putting it all on the line on one day," he said of the differences between stage and one-day racingꦐ.

"It's a bit more of a gamble. ༒You don't have tomorrow to back it up if things don't go well today. It's a very different kind of eventꦯ."
