Egan Bernal’s recovery is already a success as it is
You already know, here we are a lot of Egan Bernal, before and during the pandemic, after his horrible accident and especially in this recovery cycle.
When Egan suffered that accident, you will remember, we spoke with Pedro Horrillo, due to the similarity of his injuries and the difficulties that were sure to appear along the way.
An accident comparable to that of our beloved Sergio Román Martín which, even though it is incredible, is still horrifying.
From the moment we learned about the blow that Egan Bernal suffered, we knew that this recovery was going to be such a complex path that just seeing him competing, at the highest level, is already a success.
It is, and I know that it may hurt or upset some, but it is, That this boy is where he is is already a success.
I read his interview in Volata and other statements that they reproduce and he sets his position well.
A bath of reality…

His accident was of such magnitude that being a person with the ability to move normally was the first step, before anything else.
We knew that his recovery as a top-level cyclist was an enormous challenge, but that if anyone could achieve it it would be a guy with the human quality of Egan Bernal.
Well, since he achieved it, he competed again, even in the same year as the accident.
Now comes the question: how far will it go?
Well it will be seen.
For now, the Tour de Romandie has just finished among the top ten, which is no coincidence, especially when, be careful, it comes from various complications and suffering in races like the Volta,
The image that illustrates this article is from that race, on the way to La Molina.
There we see Egan, left, suffering, between the carstrying not to lose the trail of the best.
That Volta was Egan Bernal’s return to the World Tour, a key piece to talk about that recovery.
Perhaps, aware better than anyone of what it costs to be there again, the Colombian does not even want to hear about his version and whether he will be able to be with the best again.
That will be seen, he has written a story that will surely inspire many.
Since we saw him in Argentina he has gotten betterafter solving new problems, and showing his face where he can.
I don’t know if he will return to his best level, I would love to, without a doubt, he is a brutal runner, but if he doesn’t make it, he will be in our hearts and memories.
He has made and written the history of cycling in his country, he is a guy who seems great to me, sincere and uncaring of what anyone says.
One of those people you can only wish good things to.
