Froome: Things can change very quickly at the Vuelta

Chris Froome put himself into a comparatively comfortable position in the Vuelta a Espana general classification with a victory in the stage 16 time trial, but despite leading the race by almost two minutes, he maintains a cautious approach when he talks about the possibility of standing on the top step of the podium in Madrid this Sunday.

Born in Ireland to a cycling family and later moved to the Isle of Man, so there was no surprise when I got into the sport. Studied sports journalism at university before going on to do a Masters in sports broadcast. After university I spent three months interning at Eurosport, where I covered the Tour de France. In 2012 I started at Procycling Magazine, before becoming the deputy editor of Procycling Week. I then joined Cyclingnews, in December 2013.
