Team BikeExchange-Jayco's Sam Bewley joins Anthony and James from Girona, a few weeks before calling time on a career than spanned 14 years and took him from racing at Livestrong under the tutelage of Axel Merckx, to a brief stint at Radioshack with Lance Armstrong to a lengthy career at Orica-GreenEdge.
