Alejandro Osorio surprised the favorites to take gold at the Colombian national championships. The GW Erco Shimano rider was the only survivor of the breakaway who was able to withstand the attacks and, by only four seconds, won the race ahead of favorites Sergio Higuita and Egan Bernal.
"I like to race in Europe, clearly that's where the cycling is. I don't detract from Colombian cycling, but that's the way it is," he said in a post-race interview. The 25-year old Colombian was signed by Bahrain - Victorious in 2022, but was let go after only two months after multiple breaches of Covid-19 guidelines. This Sunday, he jumped back into the spotlight with a career-changing performance.
"I would like to go back. Here UCI is only in these Nationals and the Tour Colombia and I changed all my preparation for these two races because I told myself that they were my two main goals. I haven't stopped thinking about this since November," he told RCN.
Osorio, 25, rode 2 years at Caja Rural - Seguros RGA between 2020 and 2021 and a few months at Bahrain Victorious in 2022 before returning to Colombian soil. Now it seems that he wants to return to Europe. There is no doubt that his success in the nationals can help him.

- 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
