I just found THIS when searching for news updates:Visma: Vingegaard has a broken collarbone and several broken ribs, but he is stable and will remain in hospital for now
That doesn't sound good!Vingegaard's dad said:Seven days after Jonas Vingegaard’s crash at Itzulia Basque Country, there have been few updates from Team Visma – Lease a Bike. Claus Vingegaard, the father of the defending Tour de France champion, stated that he receives no updates from the team, according to an article in the Danish outlet Ekstra Bladet.
No word from Jonas
“It’s really hell for us. A week after his fall, my wife and I still haven’t heard from Jonas,” Claus Vingegaard said. “We just haven’t had the chance yet to hear more. Not to hear more with Jonas, but also not with his wife and his team, Visma – Lease a Bike. I don’t know how that is possible, but there has to be a way to hear more, right?”
It was good to see photos of him standing up and smiling.
I "liked" this post cos it's good to see him on the mend.
2.5 months seems a massive ask to prepare for the World's hardest and hotly contested bike race. A couple of week's lost training is no big deal, but I think the killer is the loss of conditioning from being pretty much incapacitated for 12 days. I remember how much my leg muscles withered away in a cast (many years back now, thankfully!). You can't beat nature :-/
I too had experience of that kind of severe withering when I was ill in 2012. My legs ended up looking like arms - horribly scrawny!A couple of week's lost training is no big deal, but I think the killer is the loss of conditioning from being pretty much incapacitated for 12 days.
