VIDEO: The craziness of the Colombian fanfare for Wout van Aert before the start of Giro de Rigo!
Cycling
Wout van Aert received a brutal reception at his presentation at the Giro de Rigo before the start of the race. The Dutchman from Jumbo-Visma was Rigoberto Urán's guest star for the 2023 edition of his gran fondo and it was a great success.
The race has taken place in the department of Cundinamarca and has been a great success of participation and public with van Aert giving a spectacular mass bath and enjoying the Colombian roads. A success one more year the race organized by an Urán that demonstrates that everything he touches in Colombia turns it into gold.

- i dont think he is ready ot win against the top 2 or the 2nd rung of evenepoel, del toro , Almeida. In the third week in the TDF he was very very defensive, no attacks. i think he was exhausted. right now he needs time not the brutal Giro or the intense TDF.abstractengineer04-11-2026

- his Roubaix win was amazing. not to take anything away from him - arguably one of MVDP's wins was at the expense of a WVA flat - but so many things need to line up to get one of these. He had a perfect race with fewer bike issues on an attritional course. And crazy strong as usual. Glad he got this done.mij04-11-2026

- A mindset that reminds me of Tim Declerq. I loved watching that guy just pound away the kilometers, hours at the front, holding an entire breakaway in check on his own. Bjerg seems like a similar guy. Curling, the team sport.RidesHills04-11-2026
