So Contador's been off the bike for 4 days

due to his hearing, I'm assuming Contador has missed 4 days of training. I was told that missing any and each day of cycling is really detrimental for the pros.

So how would he make up for this losing 4 days of training ?

indoor training session at night ?

At this stage having 4 days off would generally make zero difference to fitness and would probably be a benefit. Even a "normal" person isn't going to see much difference in just 4 days.

Also if he thought it would be that big a problem there is absolutely no reason he coudn't have a bike and wind trainer at his hotel room....
