What a stupid reaction again. Pidcock and Turner had the same incident/crash. And had almost to fear for their season. Read what Pidcock had to declare at the BBC in Fayeteville :
"Time trial bikes are becoming too dangerous for riders to train with on public roads, says Egan Bernal's Ineos team-mate Tom Pidcock.
Pidcock, 22, believes the serious injuries suffered by Bernal on Monday, and his own crash in June, could be a result of the riding position.
"Positions are getting more and more extreme and we spend more time trying to hold these positions," he said.
"You don't necessarily see where you're going."
Briton Pidcock worries that the crash - which has left 2019 Tour de France winner
Bernal in intensive care following surgery on his spine and several other fractures - could also have been caused by riding a bike designed for pure speed rather than agility on the road.
Time trial bikes are used when riders compete separately against the clock, and require an aerodynamic, tucked position, in which riders must keep their head low and hold their hands directly out in front of them.
"It's evident now where it's getting quite dangerous," Pidcock told BBC Sport.
"I don't think we need to stop progressing, but think about how we can train in a safer way and try and mitigate these crashes.
"I crashed on a time trial bike, Ben [Turner, Ineos team-mate] crashed on a time trial bike. Egan's now crashed - it's getting quite extreme, the position. I think that's the biggest causes of the crashes recently."
Pidcock, who is one of the favourites to win the World Cyclo-cross Championship on Sunday, suffered a broken collarbone in a crash on a time trial bike during training in Andorra last year and missed the Tour of Switzerland as a result."
Well, Extintion, admit your wrong and ignorance now ! Oh, and I had my first racebike 53 years ago. I don't think you were born than.
The essence of my story is that I absolutely want prevention. To give an impetus, just like Pidcock, not to ride a time trial bike (and worse, in group !) on the crowded public roads in that way anymore.
Which is much more important than feeling sorry for a victim who is the cause of his injuries . And as I did in previous interventions, I do wish Bernal a good recovery.
