Egan Bernal is once again back in training after his accident at the Volta a Catalunya and is now focusing on the upcoming Itzulia Basque Country in Spain, which will take place next week.
After starting his season with Vuelta a San Juan, the Colombian cyclist had to withdraw from the tour prematurely due to knee pain. Nevertheless, he returned to racing during Volta Ciclista a Catalunya. Unfortunately, during the sixth stage, he was involved in a mid-stage crash, which caused him to retire from the race. Despite this setback, he was fortunate enough not to have any fractures.
He made a speedy recovery and was back on his bike in no time. In addition, he cycled around Monaco for a total of 101km with his Ineos Grenadiers teammate, Brandon Rivera. He will provide assistance to his teammate and reigning champion, Daniel Felipe Martínez.
At present, Bernal or his team have not disclosed his plans for the season. Nevertheless, It is likely that he will able to participate in the Tour de France, as long as he maintains his current state of good health.

- “During a TT, I am basically blind”. That was his quote after crashing into the barriers in a TT. The problem isn’t the UCI, radios or air bags. The problem is the riders and their teams.JoeyB22-12-2024
- I think you overestimate scientific knowledge and for sure the spreading of it. There are huge numbers of people in similar situations, if there were an easy solution somebody would be making big money out of it. Nerve pain can have many complex origins or be due to complex combinations of reasons. Even if you discover a reason there is not always a solution. Migraines haven’t been solved either. I have had lower back/hip nerve pains on and off for over 30 years, no kind of doctor has ever found a way to reduce, prevent or solve the problem. It may just be that some people are born with nerves that are too short or get twisted out of position during certain movements.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
- Amazing ride by her and very promising for her future. On a side note, it’s a bit worrying all these wins riders have after emotional moments in their lives, someone will come up with emotional doping at some point. Maybe give them fake news just before a big race to get hormones pumping.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
