Israel - Premier Tech's Giacomo Nizzolo has sustained a fractured collarbone after an off-season training ride ended in disaster when he crashed hard.
In an official statement made by his team on Sunday, it was stated “Unfortunately, Giacomo Nizzolo was involved in a crash yesterday while training in Switzerland. X-rays have revealed a non-displaced right collarbone fracture". A silver lining for the Italian is the fact that it seems surgery will not be required. The official statement continued by saying that the injury "fortunately, will not require surgery and can be treated conservatively,”
Thankfully despite the unluckiness of the injury, Nizzolo can count himself lucky in a weird way due to the timing of the incident. Being in the off-season, the 33-year-old has plenty of time to rest and recover. "The injury is not expected to impact his preparation for the 2023 season.”

- There was once a time when Lance was supremely popular and he used his artificial "It's Not About the Bike: My Journey Back to Life" persona to lead his mob in going after Greg. There was no one Lance did not abuse in protecting his phony hero image. Lance promoted himself as a divine megastar and he let down millions of cancer victims and gullible devotees who clung far too long to the charade. Lance is the epitome of a corrupt person and because of his power, many around him, including business enterprises, succumbed to the evil. All who got in Armstrong's way were mercilessly attacked by him and his minions. This remarkably continues today with a new generation. LeMond was a number one enemy and paid a huge price.
