🗨️ 🇧🇪 Eli Iserbyt: "On the first off camber I fell and felt something in my leg. I was in a lot of pain. My chain fell off and I had to run a bit. Until then I had a good feeling. I couldn't put power on my left leg, it was strange." 1/2 (Sporza)

Eli Iserbyt was one of the favourites for the European cyclocross championship in Namur, but he abandoned the race midway despite a good start.
"At the first slant, I got off balance and had to get off the bike," Iserbyt told Sporza. He continues his explanation, "Because my chain was off, I had to walk for a while. When I jumped back on my bike, I felt something in my left leg. A strain or a twist? I have no idea, but I do know that I was in severe pain. Too bad, because until then, I was feeling really good. My start was fine."
Iserbyt could no longer apply any force with his left leg and this was the moment he decided to abandon the race. "I have to say that since my back problems, I have been struggling with a kind of numbness on my left side. I thought it was better, but it played up again today. I hope it's not something permanent. The problem is no longer with my back itself. Anyway, I don't want to hide behind the fact that I have something chronic somewhere. It's under control, but I think now, with a wrong move, it got irritated again," concluded Iserbyt.
