Ronald Stiven Bernal, 15, Egan’s brother (Ineos), winner of the 2019 Tour, will follow in the footsteps of the Colombian champion with his march to Italy, where he will be trained by Gianni Savio, director of the Androni Toys-Sidermec.
The youngest of the Bernal, who competes in the mountain bike discipline, will try his luck in Italy, advised by Egan, who followed the same path a few years ago. The yellow jersey in Paris in 2019 recommends Ronald, who runs at Club Zipaquirá, “because he is really strong”, as reflected by Tuttobiciweb.

“Ronald is a real talent and Egan himself says he is very strong. Unlike Egan, his brother is stronger in sprints, able to win in a small group. Everyone speaks highly of him and I can’t wait to have him with us and make him grow like we did with Egan, “says the Androni manager.
The youngest of the Bernal family was present in Paris when his brother won the 2019 Tour. With tears in his eyes, he was moved when he saw Egan on top of the podium. Now both train together around Zipaquirá. Maybe in a few years they will see each other on the routes of the great races.
