Cycling-Froome likely to sleep on wheels during Tour de France (Reuters)
By Julien Pretot VILLARD DE LANS, France, June 12 (Reuters) – Team Sky leader Chris Froome is likely to sleep in a private motorhome during the Tour de France instead of French hotels, team principal Dave Brailsford said on Friday. The British outfit tried out the set-up in last month’s Giro d’Italia with Richie Porte, who abandoned the race injured after two weeks. There were some challenges with it, logistically, and silly little things that we had not thought about like you plug all your electrics into a hotel and you blow their kitchen, you’ve got to think about that,” Brailsford told reporters after the sixth stage of the Criterium du Dauphine, the leading warm-up race for the Tour de France.
