Teams & Riders Official Wout Van Aert thread

[ChasingPotatoes]

Having seen some people with approx. the same injury, I'd say that, optimistically, he could be able to put pressure on that ankle / foot within a week and start training rollers again.
If not, it could be 1-2 weeks off the bike.

He rode outside today for an hour / 32K.

That's going to be good for his head, at least. I wouldn't be surprised if he isn't putting more time indoors with lower intensity. Mixed with PT he can at least halt decline in fitness somewhat.
If anyone catches video of him going uphill out of the saddle we'll know he wasn't badly hurt. Til then...
