“Seeing how this works with the track is a bit of an unknown. But I expect to have absorbed this workload by the Madison on the Sunday, and we’ll see how that fares. I've been training on the track, and I am looking forward to the Euros. Doing the Euros is a good way to get looked after, and it all will set me up nicely for Opening Weekend and the Classics", he said to CyclingNews.

Another race that will also serve as preparation for his objectives is Volta a Comunitat Valenciana. The course of the race suits very well the characteristics of Wright and the British all-rounder wants to show good work already in this race.

"I’m excited to see where my training has put me, you spend the whole winter building up to this point. It’s exciting to see where I’m at and how I’ll fare against the others after changing some things and doing the same in others. It was definitely a better winter than others, but you never know until you race. Plus, I’ve never done Valenciana before.” We’ll really try to rip things up there. I’m looking forward to being a part of that as well”, Wright stated.

For his main objectives the 23 years old cyclists revealed that Tour des Flandres, Paris-Roubaix, World Championships and the Tour de France will be his main objectives.

“Paris-Nice, the first few Classics, but Flanders and Roubaix are the big ones. Then a bit of a break, a build-up to the Tour and the Worlds after that. I’ll maybe squeeze in a little getaway after the Classics, and after the Worlds, there are still some more races, of course. I’ll probably do an altitude camp again at some point, I did one before the Tour last year, and it definitely benefited me.”
