    But he didn't have to stop training for 2 weeks because of an injury before Basque country.

    Remco's coach saying in today's HLN that Remco is far from being 100% (he's not as good as in Basque country for example), and he's not expecting him to win GC.

    I'm just reporting what he said. If you ride the day after coming back from altitude, it could be that you end up with very bad legs.

    Usually you never ride a race the day after coming back... He'll be good 7 days later, a the start of the tour. Here he has to because of stupid belgian federation rules.

    Exactly. And he comes down from altitude the day before the NC RR, so he probably plans to DNF pretty fast.

    Actually he posted a video today saying he's not riding Liège but his academy is organizing an event alongside the parcours. He didn't wear an arm brace in the video...

    I think right now he enjoys the quiet around him.

    I have good news : Remco didn't break his scapula, only his collarbone.

    Soudal - Quick Step Thread

    It's not like it's a new thing, it's like the third year in a row... Actually this year's results in flemish races might be better than last year's because they won Nokere and Scheldeprijs instead of just Nokere.

    On the other hand, Mauri Vansevenant built an altitude room in his house.
