168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Chris Froome will not line up at the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Saitama Tour de France Criterium on S🌠unday, saying he’s needs more to time to recover from✤ the June crash that left him with multiple broken bones.
The four-time 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Tour de France winner, who is back riding his bike but still walking with a limp, w﷽ill participate in the team time trial but doesn’t feel ready to ride in a peloton during the main event criterium.
Despite being an exhibition event, the Saitama Criterium was billed as Froome’s re𓃲turn to racing after nearly five months on the sidelines. The 34-year-old cras✤hed while training on the time trial course at the Criterium du Dauphine in June and broke his right femur and elbow, along with vertebrae and his sternum.
He still has a plate in his hip - to be removed in early November - and bolts above his knee but has been able to ride a bike🐟 for a few weeks, albeit at l💦ow intensity.
On Friday Froome eased up on the climbs as he reconned the 2020 Olympics course near Tokyo with Jakob Fuglsang, Romain Bardet, and Michal Kwiatkowski under pouring rain. On Saturday he co🦹nfirmed he would not ride S💫unday’s criterium.
"I’m keeping the legs ticking over, basically. It’s just tourist riding at the moment really, but it’s such a good feeling to get out on the road and be back on t🅷he bike – I’ve really missed it the last few months," Froome said on Saturday.
"At the same time, I’m just not on the level to be back in a peloton, accelerating out of corners in a criterium. That’s why tomorrow (Sunday - ed), I’ll hopefully be with the guys at the start of the team 🔯time trial, but my recovery is not at the point yet where I can be back racing."
Froome nevertheless finds himself back in the world of profess🐟ional cycling, having beౠen forced to watch the season unfold from afar.
"It’s pretty cool to be back in the c💃ycling bubble again. I’ve missed it," Froome said🎀.
"Watching it from behind a screen is not the same. Even though this is not a proper race, it’s cool to be around the riders again and back in the swing of things. I definitely needed it – I could just focus on my recovery, and that’s all I’ve been doing for the past few months. Now I’m happy to be back i🍸ntegrating into the cycling world."
