Chris Froome eyes more triumphs after sealing his second Tour de France
Briton says approaching fatherhood will only make him stronger and determined to claim more titles
As he was officially named Tour de France champion for the second time on Sunday, Chris Froome was already planning his next success.
The 30-year-old Briton, who celebrated being declared winner in traditional style - sipping champagne as he cruised along the Champs-Elysees, says that fatherhood will only make him stronger and more determined.
Obviously, being a parent will change life for me but a lot of bike riders out there have kids and seem to have managed just fine
In a few months, Froome will become a father for the first time, but he says that won't dampen his will to win.
"If anything I'm going to probably have even more motivation and reason to pedal my bike faster," he said.
"Obviously, being a parent will change life for me but a lot of bike riders out there have kids and seem to have managed just fine.
"I've been speaking to a lot of other riders and some teammates who have recently had kids and it's been almost like reborn energy to keep chasing their career goals - I hope that will be the case with me."
