Eye of the storm

via EF Education First Drapac



"Post stage 19. I was on top of the climb, coughing. Like you're super tired from everything. Sensory overload because you've been assaulted with noise, horns. The finishes on theses sort of stages, they're insane. There's so many people. It's a cacophony of sound, emotions. They had us all sitting in the tent. Yates is getting a hug like he's lost a loved one. Ben King is coughing up a lung. And then all of a sudden, I'm on a gondola and shut the door, and it was completely quiet. I was beside Dayer Quintana, and I looked at him and all I could say was 'loco' and he said 'Si'. And we rode down the gondola in complete silence. It was like being in the eye of the storm."

- Michael Woods, 19th overall
