Intro:

The Trek Factory Racing squad looks ahead to the Tour de France, which starts with the Grand Depart in Yorkshire, England, on Saturday.

Script:

SOUNDBITE: (English) Fabian Cancellara, Trek Factory rider:

(On the addition of a cobblestone stage on the 2014 Tour)

"This Tour de France shows again there is not just the climbs and the time trials that can make decisions about the final result in Paris. That's sport, that's how it is. It gives some "risk spectacle" and that's how it is."

SOUNDBITE: (English) Frank Schleck, Trek Factory rider:

(On having the world's lightest bike in Trek's set of bikes)

"We can switch during the race for the different scenarios -- climbing and the cobbles. I will ride the domain for the Roubaix stage."

SOUNDBITE: (English) Andy Schleck, Trek Factory rider:

(On his recent struggles heading into the Tour)

"I believe still I have a name and still I have good capacities and good legs. Now I go into the Tour with lower ambitions than the year before. My first objective is to be there to help Frank [Schleck] and Haimar [Zubeldia] in the climbs."

SOUNDBITE: (English) Jens Voigt, Trek Factory rider and oldest rider on the tour:

(On having said last year would be his final Tour)

"... For the very probably last Tour de France. No, no I promise I'm going to stop!"
