Team Sky's newest member Ben Swift reveals his Tour breakfast to ITV Sport's Matt Rendell - some pasta with honey...

"Pasta is not the most appetising thing to wake up in the morning," said Swift, "But that's the fuel you have got to put in and I just put a bit of honey in it to sweeten it up a little!"

Swift has been in great form this year and has earned his place in Team Sky's Tour de France line-up, something that he is overjoyed with - "I've just found out and I'm really exited", said Swift.

"My aim is to finish the Tour and if I can avoid injury and everything goes right then I think I'm capable of achieving that."

"If I can perform well and get a top three like I did in the Giro stage then that would be really good," he added.
