"I will do my best to be competitive and have fun again" - Peter Sagan eyes 2024 campaign
Mountain Bike
In some interesting quotes collected by Lukas Ronald Lukacs, Peter Sagan has revealed the details of his 2024 season, which will be the last of an impressive career in which we must put above all the 3 world championships and 7 Tour de France regularity jerseys he won.
PLANS FOR THE 2024 MTB SEASON.
"I always said: I was born on MTB, I will 'die' on MTB. In fact, I was never too sure about becoming a professional road cyclist when I was a junior."
"If you want to go fast in MTB, you have to specialize, nothing can be improvised. It wasn't easy, but it helped me understand what I needed to get back on track. Training methodology is moving forward, technique is moving forward, young people are getting stronger.”
"In order to be maximally prepared for MTB, I try to make a good foundation. The foundation is always important, especially in winter. But I still add some quality, without exaggeration. I will increase the pace from January. Strength in the gym is also fundamental, but the decisive point for me is technique: I have to improve!”
CAR RIDE WITH THE PIERRE BAGUETTE TEAM.
"As for the road, I would like to race for the Pierre Baguette Team, in which my brother Juraj is the sports director, but it is not official yet, we are working on it. I would like to do some road races with them, but only as a training for MTB.”
CHANGES ON YOUR BIKE.
"On the MTB you will see me with a special jersey that will have the same graphics as the Specialized Factory Racing Team, but will be produced by Sportful, my personal sponsor, who also found a good match with Specialized.”
OBJECTIVE: PARIS.
"But overall, my main goal for next year will be to participate in the Paris Olympics. Then once the season starts I will understand what my level is and how to proceed with the plans. I will do my best to be competitive again and, above all, to have fun again.”
