David Millar :

“I love cycling, and I‘ve always been enchanted by the epic scale of it all, it was why I fell in love with it as a boy. Yet Wouter‘s death today goes beyond anything that our sport is supposed to be about, it is a tragedy that we as sportsmen never expect, yet we live with it daily, completely oblivious to the dangers we put ourselves in. This is a sad reminder to us, the racers, what risks we take and what lives we lead."
