Cadel Evans was so meticulous in the lead up to his 2011 Tour de France win, he even had to make sure he was using the correct soap to wash his gear…
“You’ve got to understand, you’ve got to minimise all the problems,” Cadel tells the FIVEAA sports show.

Cadel’s new book is called ‘The Art of Cycling’.
