00:00Comment est-ce que tu es un crash ?
00:02Bien sûr, ce n'est pas le premier crash que j'ai eu eu.
00:11Also, coming out of un period de l'off-season
00:16n'a pas été facile à faire des années,
00:19knowing que tout le monde était à train again
00:21et que j'avais à attendre 6 semaines encore,
00:24de faire absolument rien.
00:25It was pretty difficult to accept
00:28Also if you compare it with Lombardia
00:31For example
00:32Then it was in the holiday period
00:36It was good weather
00:37You could easily go out
00:40In the wheelchair or with the
00:42Crutches back then
00:43Now it was bad weather in Belgium
00:45So you have to stay inside all the time
00:47Everybody was busy with their own
00:50Lives and preparation in the season
00:52So it's more the
00:54The thing of
00:55Second time
00:57I mean the injury now was worse than in April
01:00But second time
01:02Same shoulder in a few
01:04Months time
01:05Just a bit of the sum up
01:08I think the
01:10Combination of that was just making it
01:12Pretty difficult
01:13But yeah
01:15For the moment all good
01:16I'm back ready to race
01:18Positive feelings now
01:20Just another question
01:22And if it's too personal you can say it
01:24In the post you also said something
01:26About prayers with Umi
01:28Can you tell us how important
01:30Religion in your life is?
01:33Well it's something that
01:34I got to know
01:37In the last year
01:38And more and more
01:40And I think it's something that we
01:41Share and we are
01:42Very proud to share it together
01:44And it's something
01:45That every person has to do it
01:47For himself or not
01:49That's something I cannot judge on
01:52And for me it's like
01:53I don't know the exact word in English
01:56But I'm going to say it in English
01:57And how vast
01:58So it's something that helps me to
02:00To go through
02:02Through life
02:05And yeah
02:07It's something very
02:09Very beautiful
02:10So it's very
02:11Very nice to
02:12Share it with Umi
02:13And that's the Islam right?
02:16That's the religion?
02:17Yes
02:17Yes
02:17Yes
02:17Yes
02:17Okay
02:18Thank you Remco
02:19Thank you
02:21Andrew please
02:21Hi Remco
02:25Just talking about your training
02:27I'm curious
02:28You know
02:28If you missed six weeks
02:29Kind of an important block there
02:31How did it impact you
02:32To get to this point?
02:34Did you have to do anything differently?
02:36And are you now
02:37Six weeks behind
02:39Where you'd like to be
02:39Coming into the
02:40Spring Classics?
02:41Thanks
02:42It's always difficult
02:44To calculate
02:46The way you're doing it now
02:47Or asking me
02:48So I think
02:50Once I was able
02:52To ride a bike
02:53I think it was
02:54The first of February
02:55If I'm not wrong
02:55Outside
02:56Before that
02:57I jumped on the rollers a bit
02:59But of course
02:59It's different to just
03:00Ride an hour on the rollers
03:01Or two
03:02Going
03:04I mean
03:04Comparing to going outside
03:05First month
03:08It was really difficult
03:08To do proper exercises
03:10So I think
03:13Once I went to Spain
03:14With my wife
03:16There I started to
03:17Train on exercises
03:18And more intensive
03:19Intensity trainings
03:21Which was not easy at all
03:23Because I just had like
03:24A month
03:25And a few days
03:26Of training in my legs
03:28So
03:28I felt that my body
03:30Was not ready for
03:31Intensity trainings
03:33At that time
03:34So
03:35We had to kind of
03:36Implement all the
03:39Intensity trainings
03:40In the Sierra training camp
03:41That I've been going on
03:42To
03:43The past two weeks
03:44And I've made
03:46Quite big steps
03:47In the last
03:48Weeks
03:49So I think
03:51That the racing
03:54Is not coming
03:55Too soon
03:56For me
03:56Now
03:57I think I'm ready
03:58To race
03:58I've tried to train
04:02Long
04:03Long rides
04:04So a lot of
04:05Endurance rides
04:06And then
04:07Like I said
04:08The last few weeks
04:09Intensity trainings
04:10But I think
04:10I'm not
04:11I'm for sure
04:13I'm behind
04:14My top shape
04:15But I'm still
04:17In a good shape
04:17Like I always try
04:19To start
04:19But will it be enough
04:21To beat guys
04:22Like
04:22Like Pitcock
04:24And Pogacar
04:25Who are in
04:25Yeah
04:26The shapes of their lives
04:27Seems like
04:28This I don't know
04:30This we will
04:30We will see after Sunday
04:32And next week as well
04:34So
04:34I'm just happy
04:36I can race again
04:37Finally
04:37And
04:38Yeah
04:39I think
04:39The upcoming weeks
04:41I need to
04:42I need to use the weeks
04:44To
04:44To make steps forward
04:46Towards the biggest goals
04:48And of course
04:48That's Tour
04:49And
04:49The championships
04:51At the end of the year
04:52Just do a quick follow-up
04:54The
04:55Injury was two more
04:57The most serious
04:58Injury was to your shoulder
04:59Is that correct
05:00And how did that impact
05:01It hasn't really impacted
05:02Your
05:02Capacity to perform
05:04On the bike
05:04Now that you're
05:05Properly recovered
05:06Is that correct
05:06There's nothing permanent
05:08I should say
05:08Well
05:10Let's say that
05:12After a few
05:14Weeks
05:15Being in the injury
05:16We discovered
05:17A nerve injury
05:18This one has not healed yet
05:20So there's a part
05:21Of the shoulder muscle
05:22That is not
05:23Working
05:24At all
05:24For the moment
05:25But luckily
05:26That muscle
05:27Is not the most important
05:29One
05:29For cyclists
05:31If I would be
05:32A tennis player
05:33Or a volleyball player
05:34My career
05:35Would have been
05:35Or basketball
05:36My career
05:36Would have been over
05:37So luckily
05:38I'm a cyclist
05:39So yeah
05:41I mean
05:41My hand is
05:42100% again
05:44The ribs
05:45The scapula
05:46The lungs as well
05:48Just yeah
05:49The ligaments
05:50And the muscle
05:51Is still a bit
05:52Sensible
05:55Let's say
05:56And we need to
05:57Yeah
05:58To use a lot of tape
05:59Tomorrow for example
06:00In the race
06:00To stabilize
06:01Stabilize
06:02The shoulder
06:03Especially with the
06:05Cobalt sections
06:05That we are having
06:07So
06:07I mean
06:09It's not optimal
06:09But of course
06:10My legs are turning
06:12That's
06:12That's the most important
06:13Thank you
06:16Tiro
06:17Ciao Remco
06:19Welcome back
06:20Happy to see you again
06:21Thank you
06:22Really
06:22Really happy
06:23And
06:23I was wondering
06:24If you watched
06:25The big spring classics
06:28As Sanremo
06:29Flanders
06:30And Roubaix
06:30Two questions
06:32The first one
06:33How much
06:34Have you been
06:36Impressed
06:37To the level
06:38That especially
06:39Mathieu
06:40And Tadej
06:41Showed
06:41And if
06:42In the future
06:44You will test
06:46Yourself
06:47Also in these races
06:48Maybe I imagine
06:49Sanremo
06:50Maybe yes
06:52But
06:52What about
06:53Flanders
06:53In the future
06:54I mean
06:55Yeah of course
06:57I watch the races
06:58It's always
06:58Beautiful races
06:59To watch
06:59I'm also
07:00A cycling fan
07:01So I
07:02Like to
07:03Watch the classics
07:04Already since
07:04I was a kid
07:05So
07:05It has been
07:06Some beautiful
07:08Competition
07:09And fights
07:10Between
07:11The big riders
07:12To have watched
07:13With always
07:15One extra guy
07:16In Sanremo
07:17It was
07:17Filippo
07:18Then in
07:18Roubaix
07:19There was also
07:20A few other guys
07:21With them
07:22Well in
07:24In Flanders
07:24There was not
07:25Not many others
07:25But of course
07:26Always
07:27Matthieu and
07:28Tade
07:28Being in Flanders
07:29Was very special
07:30To watch
07:30And it gave me
07:31Motivation
07:31To push myself
07:32In trading
07:33And to try
07:34And find a better
07:35Level
07:35To be able
07:36To compete
07:37With them
07:37And yeah
07:39For the future
07:40For sure
07:40I will take place
07:42In
07:42For sure
07:43Sanremo
07:44And Flanders
07:45Roubaix
07:45We will see
07:46Depends of
07:47Of how motivated
07:49I will be
07:50And where my goals
07:51Will be
07:51Because also
07:52Roubaix is the week
07:53Before the Ardennes
07:54Classics starts
07:55And I always
07:56I mean
07:57I have more chance
07:57In the Ardennes
07:58Than in Roubaix
07:59Of course
07:59So there's always
08:01More chance
08:01That I will skip
08:02Roubaix
08:02Compared to Flanders
08:03But yeah
08:05First this year
08:06I think I have to
08:07To get through
08:08A lot
08:09Still this year
08:10So
08:10We will see
08:11For the next years
08:12Thank you
08:13Thank you
08:14Vincent
08:15Please
08:15Good afternoon
08:17Remco
08:17In your Instagram
08:19Post
08:19You talk about
08:21Maybe stopping
08:22Your career
08:22Did you really
08:24Think about it
08:24Of course
08:26The injuries
08:27Were not
08:27I mean
08:28The injuries
08:29Were quite severe
08:30With my
08:32Shoulder
08:33Where all the
08:34Muscles
08:34All the ligaments
08:35Were destroyed
08:37The surgery
08:38Was a
08:39Heavy one
08:40As well
08:40And then
08:41The extra
08:42Nerve
08:42Problem
08:43Which
08:44Completely
08:45Out functioned
08:47My shoulder
08:47Was pretty
08:48Hard
08:49To accept
08:50And also
08:52Yeah
08:52I mean
08:52It was just
08:54It was just
08:54A difficult
08:54Period
08:55And
08:55Always
08:58I mean
08:59It's the second
08:59Time the shoulder
09:00In six months
09:00The same
09:01Shoulder
09:01So
09:02At a certain
09:03Point you
09:03Start to doubt
09:04Will the shoulder
09:04Be healthy again
09:06Will it be
09:06Functional again
09:07So yeah
09:09So yeah
09:09I mean
09:09The things
09:10I've written
09:11Were not
09:11Lied
09:12In the post
09:12So
09:13I think
09:14It's
09:15One of the
09:16First posts
09:16That I
09:16Wrote myself
09:17In the last
09:18Few
09:18Years
09:19So
09:20I think
09:21That's how
09:22Personal it
09:22Was
09:22And of course
09:23I think
09:24It's not
09:25Bad to
09:25Sometimes
09:25Share
09:26How
09:27Difficult
09:28The period
09:28Really has
09:29Been
09:29And not
09:30Always put
09:30A mask
09:31On but
09:31Just
09:31Show it
09:32To people
09:33How difficult
09:33It has
09:34Been
09:34So
09:35Everybody
09:36Knows
09:37Or
09:38Yeah
09:39Knows what
09:40To expect
09:40For the
09:41Next few
09:42Weeks
09:42For example
09:42But yeah
09:44I mean
09:44It doesn't
09:45Mean that I'm
09:45Not happy
09:45Now
09:46I think
09:46I'm
09:46Really happy
09:47Again
09:48To race
09:49To train
09:50I think
09:51My whole
09:52Family
09:52My wife
09:53My friends
09:53Have seen
09:54Me changing
09:54Over the
09:56Weeks
09:56Since
09:57The crash
09:58So
09:59Let's say
09:59First it was
09:59Going downwards
10:01And then
10:01Since I
10:02Could train
10:03Again
10:03It was
10:03Going
10:03Upwards
10:04So
10:05Now
10:06It's
10:06Hopefully
10:08Only up
10:09And
10:09Positive
10:10Feelings
10:10Thank you
10:12Mr.
10:13McGrath
10:13Hi there
10:15Remke
10:16You said
10:17Tadej Pogacar
10:19Is in the
10:19Form of
10:19His life
10:20Coming off
10:21An exceptional
10:21Spring
10:22I'm just
10:24Curious
10:24What does
10:25Tadej
10:25Represent to
10:26You
10:26Is he
10:27An example
10:28Or just
10:28Another
10:28Rival
10:29Did he
10:31Send you
10:32Any messages
10:32When you
10:33Were injured
10:33And finally
10:34How do you
10:36Approach the
10:36Big challenge
10:37Of trying to
10:38Beat him
10:38Mentally
10:39And physically
10:39Honestly I
10:43Don't
10:43Remember
10:44If he
10:44Sent me
10:45A text
10:46Because it's
10:46Already quite
10:47A long
10:47Time ago
10:47And I've
10:48Got quite
10:49A few
10:49Messages
10:50On the
10:51Day of
10:51The crash
10:52But next
10:54To that
10:54Yeah of
10:54Course
10:54It's
10:55Inspiring
10:56To watch
10:57Him race
10:57But I
10:59Always have
10:59To keep
10:59In mind
11:00That he's
11:00A competitor
11:01And not
11:02I mean
11:03On the
11:03On the
11:04Bike
11:04With a
11:05Different
11:05Jersey
11:05I need
11:05To try
11:06To beat
11:06Him
11:06Which is
11:07Very difficult
11:08But of
11:09Course it's
11:09Something that
11:10The team
11:11Pays me for
11:12And
11:12Yeah
11:13Helps me to
11:14Try and
11:15Go for that
11:16So yeah
11:17I just try to
11:18Learn when I
11:19See him race
11:19And
11:19Kind of
11:21I'm not gonna
11:22Say analyze
11:22Because I'm
11:23Not that
11:23Smart
11:23But just
11:24Try to
11:24See how
11:25He races
11:25See some
11:27Typical styles
11:28Of him
11:28But of
11:30Course yeah
11:31You have to
11:31Be focused
11:33On yourself
11:33Occupied with
11:34Yourself
11:34And try to
11:35Be the best
11:35Version of
11:36Yourself
11:37And I
11:37Think
11:37That's the
11:39Only way
11:39That we
11:39Can
11:40Or that I
11:41Can
11:41Go and
11:42Try to
11:42Beat
11:42Them
11:42Him
11:44And
11:45Them
11:45For the
11:46Tour
11:46So
11:47But yeah
11:49Next to
11:49That it's
11:50Of course
11:51One of
11:52I mean
11:52Probably
11:53The best
11:54Rider
11:54That there
11:55Has been
11:55Since
11:57Since
11:58Mercs
11:58So yeah
12:00It's up
12:00To us
12:01To go
12:02And hunt
12:02That position
12:03Let's say
12:04Thank you
12:06Yuri
12:06Please
12:07Yeah
12:09Hi Remco
12:09Good to see
12:10You back
12:10Again
12:11Speaking of
12:13The mental
12:13Thing
12:14Allow me
12:15To get
12:15To go
12:16Back
12:17A little
12:17Bit
12:18To the
12:19Past season
12:20Which was
12:21Very successful
12:22But also
12:24Very
12:24Busy
12:25And hard
12:25With the
12:26Setback
12:26Also
12:27After
12:27Pay
12:28Busk
12:28And so
12:29On
12:29We can
12:30All say
12:31That it's
12:31Part of

12:32Part of
12:33The game
12:33But
12:33Do you

13:08Point
13:08It just
13:08Can
13:08Become
13:09Too
13:09Much

13:12Olympics
13:12After
13:13My
13:13Italian

13:16I
13:17Think
13:18It
13:18Was
13:19Pretty
13:20Clear
13:20I
13:20Was
13:20Just
13:21Not
13:22Not
13:22Able
13:23To
13:23Go
13:23To
13:23Events
13:24For
13:24A few
13:24Weeks
13:25And
13:25Months
13:26And
13:27Then
13:27At
13:27The
13:27End
13:27I
13:28Was
13:29Kind
13:29Of
13:29Obligated
13:30To
13:30Go
13:30To
13:31Some
13:31Events

13:36Year
13:36You
13:36Just
13:36Cannot
13:37You
13:39Just
13:40Cannot
13:40Not
13:40Go
13:41If
13:44You're
13:44Not
13:44Sick
13:44Or
13:45If
13:45You
13:45Don't
13:45Have
13:45A
13:46Good
13:47Reason
13:47But
13:48Of
13:48Course
13:49Yeah
13:49It's
13:49It's
13:51Part
13:51Of
13:51The
13:51Job
13:52If
13:52You're
13:52Performing
13:53Well
13:53You're
13:54Very
13:55High
13:55Demanded
13:56But
13:56Of
13:56Course
13:56It
13:57Has
13:57To
13:57Stay
13:58Healthy
13:58Let's
13:59Say
13:59And
14:01Do
14:02I
14:02Enjoy

14:09How
14:09The
14:09Results
14:09Are
14:09But
14:11I
14:11Think
14:12It's
14:12More
14:12Healthy
14:13To
14:13Sometimes
14:14Set it
14:15Completely

14:18It
14:19And
14:19Then

14:21Like
14:23We
14:24Honestly
14:24Did it
14:24In
14:24The
14:25Last
14:25Few
14:25Months
14:26Because
14:26I

14:39Keep
14:39It
14:39The

14:40It
14:40Is

14:40It's
14:42A bit
