1. What you never needed to know about Ramunas Navardauskas:
First Memory of riding a bike?
“Me riding an oversized bike. That bike was so big that I could not even ride on the top tube. Seat was much higher! So me as a kid riding on a bike, pushing my hip next to top tube, and myself sideways trying to hold balance and still going same speed as my friends! I was not the only one to ride like that. So it was kind of normal behaviour.”

Bordeaux Paris
Bordeaux-Paris was one of the last links to professional road cycling’s dustiest origins. The version that died in 1988 was a pale shadow of what was once arguably the greatest race of all – a race which also gave us perhaps the greatest feat in the sport’s history, courtesy of Jacques Anquetil.

Jack Swart is one of the all-time greats of New Zealand road racing. His many triumphs in stage races saw him bafflingly pigeonholed by the national selectors, meaning he missed out on many one-day opportunities. But that wasn’t the only source of frustration in his career.
Briefings
One of our all-time favourite riders, we asked Ramunas some tough questions – and he obliged:
