Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates) may be riding his first race at the GP Québec on Friday since winning the Tour de France on July 21, however, men's cycling's top rider had no regrets about his choice of schedule nor skipping the Paris Olympics so that he could properly recover.
It's been 52 days for the Slovenian without pinning a race number to his back, the same number of race days he's completed in 2024 so far, with 21 wins in that time and nearly all of them stunningly dominant, so it was a deserved couple of months away from competition.
