Oscar Freire 3 time World Race Champion has officially announced that he has postponed his retirement and will continue until the 2012 Olympic Games in London.
The Spaniard champion exposed in his country's AS newspaper that the Olympics "inspire" athletes and are "totally different."
"When you are cycling, more or less, you always feel in the same environment when you go to any competition," he said. "However, being an athlete at the Olympics and meeting other athletes [from other disciplines] is worth the experience."
Freire is Spain's most successful one-day racer and has won 3 gold medal at the World Championships - 1999, 2001 and 2004.
