Nice post, not sure he learned lessons from it though.
Based on what?Nice post, not sure he learned lessons from it though.
He reflects on his body being tired, and not acting on it until his body said “enough”. I don’t necessarily get the feeling he will listen to his body next time.Based on what?
"That moment, hard as it was, showed that I'm human, with highs and lows"
"Leaving the Tour was the hardest decision I've made in a long time. But it was the right one. For once, I truly listened to my body. And I hope that moment sends a message, especially to the young riders watching: It's okay to stop. It's okay to feel tired. It's okay to be human. Sometimes stepping back is the strongest thing to do."He reflects on his body being tired, and not acting on it until his body said “enough”. I don’t necessarily get the feeling he will listen to his body next time.
And again, if this is how he felt, they must also have seen it in the numbers. Why didn’t they protect him from himself and his ambitions.
Nice message. As a designer I need to chat with him about all caps. 😉

So shouldnt have raced Nationals.

It makes even less sense that he was at the Nationals reading that post, especially before the Tour given all those things he mentioned. It was risky for many reasons and he injured himself. Ask Almeida how the rib feels.he shouldn't have gone to the TDF.
he did the TDF with a broken rib as well?
what in the actual?
Fore or even Lefevre (if he still owns part of the team) should have stepped in and ended this nonsense before it started. He should have went to the Vuelta
Yes, excuses that make sense. Chapeau that he is an open book and communicates all this to his fans.he wrote a whole damn book of excuses. chapeau.
People ask questions about what happened for 10 pages.he wrote a whole damn book of excuses. chapeau.

Rider offers explanations.
Instead of being grateful, criticize and mock.
Charming.
And was still able to drop everyone besides 2 riders last year. Such a bad climber. How do we call everyone else then?i already knew what happened: he's not a great climber
That was last year, it's history now.And was still able to drop everyone besides 2 riders last year. Such a bad climber. How do we call everyone else then?
Or ... he does everything not to let his team down, wins a stage, helps his sprinter and only quits when the team asks it, not to hurt his later goals. Remco is a 100% team player.So Remco admits he started the hardest race in the world, at 50% fitness level. Then quits halfway. Nice. His team mates must be incredibly motivated to work for him in the future.
The downside of having a big ego.
