Listen "Freddie Rodriguez, interview #2"
Episode Synopsis
In the 2nd part of my interview with Freddie Rodriguez we start where we left off at, coming off the Poggio in Milan San Remo in 2002. We dig into what he was thinking, feeling, and his positioning to set him up for the sprint. From there we talk about Ghent Wevelgem, his first ride in Paris Roubaix, and whether he did anything special to his bike for that race. Eventually we touch on him leaving Domo Farm Frites. Why he ended up riding for Vini Calderola and the Aqua & Sapone to the Lotto teams. Freddie eventually had enough of Europe and decided with having kids it was time to head home. That adventure brought Rock Racing, Team Exergy and his final team Jelly Belly.
