Fabian Cancellara: Do you mean my to do list? Well in the winter time I want really go skiing. That's a big one on my list. I also want to get used to my 'second life', you know, do all the things like spend time with my family and friends at the weekends. That's something that's hard to do when you're a rider and at races all the time. I'm really looking forward to that.
Q: Who was your favourite roommate? Thank you – @my_shoes93
FC: That's a really difficult one. I've roomed with so many riders over the years but if you're going to put me on the spot then I would have to say either Stuart O'Grady or Yaroslav Popovych. They were probably my favourites. I got along with them and they gave me a lot of support and we had a lot of good talks over the years. Stuey had some experience and Popo has worked with so many big riders, so there was a great mix there. We also talked about a lot of things other than cycling. The main thing though was that we got on really well.
