In cyclocross, Mathieu van der Poel’s competitors heave a deep sigh when he starts unstoppable again. Despite such great odds, things still have to improve.
The message that Mathieu van der Poel conveys The latest news, it’s definitely something the competition can grab by the hair with. “This is not the level at which I want to start the World Cup and certainly not in the spring classics.”
In Tabor the difference must logically be even greater and therefore the pure road cyclists among the opponents will gradually accept this. “I still have to improve. Due to the bad weather in Belgium, I haven’t been able to complete as much endurance training as I would have liked in the last few weeks.”
SAME LEVEL OF FORM AS VAN DER POEL AS LAST YEAR
Van der Poel will undoubtedly be able to achieve this in Spain in the next three weeks. This improvement is certainly still at the top of the wish list. “The results may give a distorted picture. My current fitness level is comparable to the beginning of January last year. My values during road training were as good then as they are now.”
