Einer Rubio extra motivated to thrive at 2024 Giro d'Italia: "Italy has become my second home"
CyclingFriday, 03 May 2024 at 14:00
Einer Rubio had a top-level Giro d'Italia 2023, taking a stage win in Crans Montana, one of the hardest of the race in last year's edition, and finishing eleventh overall, 10:43 behind winner Primoz Roglic. He looks to improve on that this year.
This year, Movistar Team's Colombian climber is hoping for another top-notch performance at the Corsa Rosa. At a pre-race press conference with teammates and compatriots Nairo Quintana and Fernando Gaviria, the 26-year-old climber answered several questions: "The Giro is very hard, we will have to be very attentive but it is also very good because we will know in what condition we are in and also the rivals how they are."
Einer is confident in the team that Movistar has taken to the Giro d'Italia, he sees potential to achieve something moderately important:
"We come here with a job well done since the beginning of the season, with a very promising team. I think if we look at the race strategically then we can do very well. Then, the Giro brings a lot of surprises, we will try to take advantage of them."
Finally, he spoke about Italy, where he has lived since he was 19 years old. His arrival at Vejus-TMF-Cicli Magnum2 in 2017 made him discover the country and he has been living there ever since:
"Italy has become my second home and I've been welcomed here at 19 years old. We'll already go down in the first week to the side where I live, the stage that finishes in Bocca della Selva (stage 10, ed.) is where I train a lot so we'll see how the race is placed, but yes, I'd like to be able to enjoy it."

- You continue to platform these two cheats. With that in mind I can no longer use your site. I know my leaving means little, but, sometimes you have to take a stand. See ya!DJ21-12-2024
- Look at what Froome’s won since his last TdF, stop denying there is still more than possible one outcome to the future.Mistermaumau21-12-2024

- Exactly. Remco won 3 WT races/stages last year compared to Pogocar's 19. Remco's single stage win in last years TdF earned him a meager 12 seconds over Pogocar who shellac'd him by 9 minutes in GC.Sweep21-12-2024
- Fortunately and as you point out, more than one strategy is possible and worth trying and I’m sure all concerned riders are well informed and counselled on this subject and don’t need such basic personal advice through media from an outsider.Mistermaumau21-12-2024
- The main SPOTY award is "decided" by public vote but the BBC "expert panel" decide who you can choose from, that choice has an equal split of genders and is focussed on the sports BBC show and a disabled athlete. Oh yea the ubiquitous "Pub Games" candidate there too, Darts and Snooker are not sports. The other awards are decided by the "Expert Panel" again it's about the sports BBC show, cycling has had it. Cav got his for his years and achievements in the sport, not just that 35th TDF win. Unless the BBC get access to Pro Cycling it will never feature "adequately" on SPOTYslappers6621-12-2024

- Avoiding him is a good strategy, you get more wins and then you can compete in the TDF relatively relaxed. Pit yourself against Pogi and not only there will be no wins, it will be considerable mental setbackabstractengineer21-12-2024
