  • He might not be a household name but for many cycling fans EF Education-EasyPost sports director Andreas Klier is a living legend. Renowned for his next-level knowledge of every cobbled sector from the Tour of Flanders and Paris-Roubaix, Andreas is only too aware that professional cycling demands complete dedication. To be in this game you have to give all you’ve got so away from the races he seeks relief amid the peace and quiet of his art studio. In this film we find out what keeps Andreas riding today and why painting is a part of his life in the peloton, not an escape from it.

    If you watch the Y/tube Ronde races Andreas Klier's calmness in the midst of racing is striking. His leadership style is easy to rally around making him the exemplar of cool. Learning from this vid about his painting output demonstrates his left and right brain thinking and the clarity it lends cycling

    Clearly a cerebral type of DS, the subtle encouragement and getting the riders to believe in themselves.

    Is it just me or NONE of the racers seem to even have the slightest interest while he yap and yap ?
