Egan Bernal needs not only the roads in Europe and his teammates, but also the people who support him in every competition. Even fans of other nationalities who usually go to see him when he competes in the most important rounds of the cycling calendar.

That, in addition to not having been able to start the year in the best way and being almost ad portas de la muerte, are perhaps moments that have weighed heavily on the 25-year-old Cundinamarcan cyclist.

However, his recovery has evolved by leaps and bounds. On social networks, the athlete himself has shown his progress since he got out of surgery on his vertebrae and later the discharge taking some steps before the press and his followers.

Then, with the discipline that characterizes athletes, Egan took the reins of rehabilitation to the point of doing some exercises in addition to walking with a cane to maintain balance.

Even so, supporters celebrate in every publication that Bernal makes about his recovery, but, perhaps what they did not expect to find was that in two months since his tremendous accident he would be seen on a bicycle rolling and less on the roads around his home, as he has also shown in recent days his different social networks, to the surprise of many people.

Everything could give signs that his return to competitions is closer to what was originally talked about, but the final word lies in his definitive recovery and the doctors who have been monitoring him, in addition to the Ineos Grenadiers team that has been very aware of his star rider.

Given this and the signs of affection that fans have shown to the champion of the Tour de France 2019 and the Giro d'Italia 2021, through his team, the event with which Egan intends to get closer to his fans while he rides a bicycle virtually has been announced through his team.

On April 2, through the platform Zwift Bernal will be running with his followers, as he stated in a statement for Ineos Grenadiers:

The event will be on April 2 at 5:00pm Colombian time and it is expected that the accompaniment to the Colombian cyclist laureate will be massive. The English team has allowed those who connect to use the bike and the Ineos kit in the game “To show their support, all Zwifters will be able to ride on the team's Bioracer kit in the game, on top of the Pinarello Dogma F”, the statement closed.
