good news on Magner,though I suppose "Ok" covers a wide range of conditions.as I dont think they rush you straight into surgery if you are just "Ok", but could have been a lot worse certainly.

certainly was worse for Van Eynde 3 broken vertebrae, ouch, that could have been very bad depending on which vertebrae she broke.

No GC ambitions for Kopecky. They’re going for stage wins.

Lizzie Deignan has officially retired.

One world championship, a silver medal, one flanders, one Paris-Roubaix, one Liege-Bastogne-Liege, one strade Bianchi, two tour of britain, 3 gp of plouey, and one tour de france femme sans zwift (or la course as it was known as the time), & one the parx casino philly cycling classic.

& most of all she won the hearts of millions & millions of cycling fans.

Fare thee well, Lizzie. You achieved one of the hardest feats imaginable in cycling: making me agree with Jonathan Vaughters.

I hope motherhood treats you well, and that it keeps you busy enough not to become a pundit.
