“It’s not good,” said Roglic when referring to the maneuver of Fred Wright which caused his fall. “It shouldn’t happen. There are cyclists who advance as if nothing is going to happen. I’m not like that. I don’t want this to be the path cycling takes and I want it to be clear”, argued the Slovenian, who later acknowledged how difficult it was for him to get up after of disaster.

“After the fall I needed time to sort things out. I thought: How did this happen? And my conclusion was that the way the crash happened was unacceptable. Not everyone saw what happened. The accident was not caused by bad roads or lack of safety, but by the behavior of a cyclist. I had no eyes behind me. Otherwise I would have lost my way. Wright came up behind me and I knocked the handlebars in my hands before I still realized it.”

A situation that was also denounced by Richard Plugge, CEO of Jumbo-Visma and current president of the International Association of Professional Cycling Team Groups (AIGCP).
