"It's been a nice, hard, strong and interesting Tour. I haven't had the best legs these days, but the Tour is a long event, with ups and downs. You can get sick and then recover, you can fall and get back up to find a stage," Urán said. His words reflect his resilient attitude and his ability to find motivation in difficulties.
The Colombian rider also spoke about his expectations for the upcoming mountain stages. With optimism and confidence in his experience in mountain terrain, Urán hopes to take advantage of these crucial stages to improve his position in the general classification.

- 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
