CYCLE SPORT VS PRO RIDER CHESS SHOWDOWN
Monday 15th December 2008 – Cycle Sport vs pro rider chess showdown
Any rider who can win a stage of the Tour de France must have a good understanding of tactics. Even more so in the confusing melee of a bunch sprint.
What better way to hone your tactical skills than via a game of chess? When Cycle Sport magazine found out that one well known pro rider was also a fan of the game, we challenged him to a match.
The full chess showdown feature will appear in the February 2009 issue of Cycle Sport magazine, on sale from Wednesday, December 24.
Here is the video.
