Double Tour de France winner Jonas Vingegaard (Visma-Lease a Bike) has revealed that once his career in cycling is over, unlike many other bike riders - past and present - he currently has no plans to try his hand in a different role in the sport.
As the season ends and a fresh wave of riders retire, future plans are flying back and forth in the peloton, and many soon-to-be-ex-pros have already announced plans to continue as sports directors or coaches.
Amongst them, Geraint Thomas (Ineos Grenadiers) is already fast-tracking to a new position as Head of Racing with his current team, whilst Elia Viviani (Lotto), still racing round the boards of Gent velodrome just a few days back, was confirmed on Friday as a new Ineos sports director.
