Egan Bernal has admitted that he did not expect to be racing the Tour de France this summer and has already shelved any idea of a GC bid, but the former winner says he is going to give it his best shot all the same.
"I felt good, and they've brought me here," was how the 29-year-old described the process via which he has ending up racing his sixth Tour de France, all of which have been with Netcompany Ineos or previous iterations of the same squad.
