Peter Sagan has just arrived to Australia to begin the new season by becoming part of the Tour Down Under. The World Champion who will once again proudly year his rainbow jersey after his Bergen third, consecutive victory, will experience his first season as a father after\u00a0the birth of his son in October, 2017.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Now that\u00a0Sagan\u2019s paternity leave is over, he is feeling super exited and ready to give his best and make the 2018 season extra special, he told La Gazzetta dello Sport a few days ago.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Sagan admitted to feel \u2018like any other dad\u2019 out there but claimed that he continues to be very hungry for success as the new season begins and his 28 birthday arrives. He is now starting his 10th season as a World Tour rider feeling more in shape than ever before.<\/p>\n

“It\u2019s a beautiful feeling being a father, it\u2019s difficult to describe, Marlon makes me so happy,” Sagan told La Gazzetta dello Sport.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
“I\u2019m a normal dad, who gets worried when he cries and I can\u2019t understand what he needs; I also enjoy playing and smiling with him. My life has changed, things are more emotional now but everything else is pretty much the same. The truth is that Kate mostly looks after Marlon but I\u2019m sure that\u2019ll change when he gets older. I\u2019ve lost some sleep but it\u2019s been worth it for sure.”<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
So far, Sagan has been able to win 101 races including the 2016 Tour of Flanders.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
When asked about his main goals and future plans, Sagan told La Gazzetta that he would love to win Roubaix (Paris-Roubaix) and San Remo as well.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
“There\u2019s little change to my usual race programme. After racing in Australia I\u2019ll do an altitude camp at Sierra Nevada in Spain. I could then ride the opening races in Belgium at the end of February. For sure I\u2019ll be in Italy for Strade Bianche and Tirreno-Adriatico before Milan-San Remo. My build-up for the Belgian Classics will follow the usual path.”<\/p>\n
