"I hope the Chinese bikers could keep riding, not necessarily pursuing athletic goals but to enjoy themselves and help ease off mental stress."
Renowned Chinese actress Zhang Jingchu, an avid amateur cyclist, was also invited to the event to interact with Contador as a guest.
Citing his experience competing in road cycling at the 2008 Summer Olympics, Contador said Beijing is a city that he enjoys visiting many times.
"Although I only finished at fourth place at the 2008 Summer Olympics, I left Beijing with a pleasant experience. I always have a good impression of the city," said Contador, a 40-year-old Madrid native who retired from pro cycling in 2017.
