Jonas Vingegaard spotted training in Mallorca with a new tattoo
Cycling
As usual for the not often eloquent Jonas Vingegaard, we haven't heard much from the Dane since his terrible crash at Itzulia Basque Country. The two-time Tour de France champion was looking to wrap up his, until that moment successful, spring at the Spanish WT stage race by challenging the likes of Remco Evenepoel and Primoz Roglic for a prestigious victory.
His team Visma | Lease a Bike kept feeding us with sporadic updates on Vingegaard's road to recovery towards the French grand tour but it's third parties that often manage to dig out some extra information, just like in this case.
From the looks of it, things seem to be going in the right direction for Jonas Vingegaard. The Dane of Visma | Lease a Bike was recently spotted training in Denmark again, but is currently in Mallorca for a training camp.
While climbing the Coll de Sóller, he stopped for a coffee at the Ca'n Topa Cafe and of course it couldn't go without a picture with the fans he encountered there. "Super fit," he is called by the owners.
However what is more striking is what appears to be a tattoo on the ivory white forearm of the silent Vingegaard. Who would have thought that the timid Dane would sport a butterfly on his forearm? Perhaps he plans to sting like a bee and fly like a butterfly at Tour de France? We'll have to wait and see in July.

- i don’t know nearly as much about bruyneel or hincapie as most of us do about lance, but we judge people by the company they keep. i hand no idea what psychological problems the other two have, but there’s gotta be something pretty severely wrong with them if they continue to choose to be close to armstrong.OCexile26-12-2024
- Ayuso and Rodriguez are only 22 and 23. Don't pressure it as they're still so sooo young.

- Oh, and yes: I am no psychiatrist/psychologist, but Bruyneel and Texas Turd are both sociopaths. It goes well beyond "protect my world and anyone would" that is the usual zeitgeist of their bullshit. No normal person has Bob Roll go at Greg Lemond with an audio recording device at Ron Keifel's bike shop...for example.EricJensenRidesBikes26-12-2024
- Funnier: this website keeps giving credo to their ramblings. In this case, why in any possible way would Boonen want to create a fantasy world to attach himself to these two clowns when more likely he would want to forget he was even there? Laughable.EricJensenRidesBikes26-12-2024

- Rowe spent his whole career on one team being nothing more than a thug for Skyneos. I have no idea why another team would want import this type of person into their program.Sweep26-12-2024

- yeah, that’s a more fair assessment. “reaching mathieu’s level” doesn’t mean you’re planning to replicate his whole career. the former IS doable, potentially. it’s just the latter that likely is not.OCexile25-12-2024
- That’s not entirely true. Every person follows their own development path and peaks differently. Remco and Primoz had hardly started cycling before elite level. Jonas was pretty much under the radzr until he unexpectedly had to take over responsibility at JV. Some guys only get real good in their thirties others have peaked mid-twenties. You can’t tell in advance how and upto what level they will progress, obviously his career might not have MVDPs length but nothing says he could not end up doing a few seasons at his level.Mistermaumau25-12-2024
