Tejay van Garderen has experienced both the highs and lows of cycling. But at the same time he’s been remarkably consistent throughout. Procycling magazine caught up with the rider last summer as he prepared to ride the 2020 Tour de France.

This article was taken from Procycling magazine issue 271, August 2020.

Sophie Hurcom is Procycling’s deputy editor. She joined the magazine in 2017, after working at Cycling Weekly where she started on work experience before becoming a sub editor, and then news and features writer. Prior to that, she graduated from City University London with a Masters degree in magazine journalism. Sophie has since reported from races all over the world, including multiple  Tours de France, where she was thrown in at the deep end by making her race debut in 2014 on the stage that Chris Froome crashed out on the Roubaix cobbles.
