He was spotted again this week in Denmark.

I was just trying to point out that we don't really know anything because of the lack of recent updates. A lot can happen in two weeks.

Possibly. Not necessarily predictable which is why no doctor suggested I ride my indoor trainer excessively while recovering from surgery involving surgery around nerve repairs, grafted tendons and arteries. The concern for impact on that healing surpassed any possible gain and the prescription was almost always low level steroids and rest. The risk for setback was too high. Higher levels of steroids to alleviate painful impact on nerves and implants were used with no-load mobilization.
That said; emphasis on lower level aerobic activity (indoor trainer) was tolerated as an inflammation reducer and encouraged range of motion if it was an issue. Being a stupid cyclist helped being motivated to try harder and ignore minor discomfort. Nerve pain, not so much.

Huh? did something I say imply that vingegaard could exercise his way to a faster recovery?

I don't know how long Evenepoel was back training then, but I think it was longer than Vingegaard.

2 months, but he started from 0

Those TV guys were obviously completely clueless as to how he was looking. He was out on a very easy stroll, you could literally see that he wasn't pushing hard in the pedals, yet they were yapping about how fast and strong he looked...

Top pro going 37kph on the flat in zone 2 and they losing their mind

Some rumours say that he is in Sierra Nevada since yesterday, also Marca is saying that now in his website.
I don´t know if it´s true and it seems strange (although one in particular is normally a reliable spotter in the area).

He is on course to be at his best in the Tour! Happy days.

 

[FanBoi]

He is not there yet.

 

[Salvarani]

Still a lot of time left. No worries.

It wouldn't fit much with what his coach was saying, so it may have been fake news or a confusion with some other Visma cyclist who has some similarity I guess

 

[Samu Cuenca]

Too many conflicting messages in this thread now. Should I be listening to Air Supply's All Out of Love, or Higher Love by Steve Winwood? Or Mr. Roboto? Or Land of Confusion? (I haven't listened to any new music since the mid 1980's, and I wasn't even alive then)

Visma also denied the report of Marca about Vingegaard leaving the hospital, and a couple hours later he really left the hospital.

 

[FanBoi]

It’s not Marcas own sources though. It ses reported here - https://www.estadiodeportivo.com/polideportivo/jumbo-visma-confirma-vingegaard-20240516-452106.html

And theh even got the name wrong. Vingegaard was photographed Wednesday in Denmark. I doubt he traveled to altitude the day after.

 

[Peyroteo94]

OMG, I will just wait for June 29th and see his true level. Can't stand these fake news.

how about "Time has come Today" by Chambers Bros.?

That one's not from the 80's though. I did consider Jackie Wilson's (Your Love Keeps Lifting Me) Higher and Higher, which is also from 1967, but I went with Higher Love instead.

Jonas might probably be with Paul McCartney and someone is doing a great job at hiding it.

Stevie Winwood liked riding a bike, too. There's that...

But that record is not from the 1980's either.

I'll have to swap Gaye's tracks with Frida from ABBA's/Phil Collins' I Know There's Something Going On, sadly Modern Talking's Brother Louie is the only song that contains the word brother I can think of at the moment, Eye in the Sky by The Alan Parsons Project, We Are the World by all the stars, and then I hope I can get away with removing a letter from Whitney Houston's You Give Good Love for the last one.

Don’t worry, we’ve been told repeatedly he’ll be there and only has to be in 70% shape to win as it’s just the final week that’s important.

Honestly, i didn't saw anyone saying something like that.
