You can't blame fans of any club from questioning Erik's fitness to race when his own weekly update/newsletter was on his own website. Even with my blue-tinted glasses it was clear (not blurred) for all to read before it was amended. It’s a fair point, but I doubt many on here know what tests, medical examinations have taken place, so it’s just speculation really. If he’s not medically fit to ride then he shouldn’t, if he is then he should. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MartinBSN 617 Posted June 16, 2023 I'm confused. Are we trying to claim a rider who voluntarily sat out for 6 weeks to not endanger other riders, potentially costing himself a team spot in both leagues, is now being irresponsible and riding? Or is it simply lost in translation to what he actually meant? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
