Don't really know what to say. It's just so f---ing awful. Kid had his whole life ahead of him and so much potential.Logic-is-your-friend said:RIP Bjorg.
Fighting the tears. Condolences to his loved ones.
Tuttobiciweb is reporting that he had slowly lost contact from the main bunch before crashing alone. ATM it hasn't been confirmed and even if it's confirmed we'll have to wait until the autopsy report comes out.klintE said:The accident occurred on a pretty straight road

If that's the case, yes. I've brought that up in the past, that this can not be a coincidence, regardless of it being true in this case or not.huge said:I've read rumours that it might have been a heart failure and that caused the accident.
Apparently something similar to what happened to Goolaarts during the 2018 PR
It is quite worrying to see that there have been 5 riders who died for heart failure in the last 5 years and they have all been either Dutch or from Belgium.
Absolutely gutted...coming out of a second E-sports tournament in a week. Felt overjoyed after checking the news after San-Sebastian but that's nothing compared to the grief and sadness I felt today.
