Hi everybody! I'm off to beautiful South Africa 🇿🇦 where I'll spend a month of intense training on MTB! New year, new challenges and new goals! 🚵... | By Peter Sagan | Facebook

that is correct. Cape Epic training camp

He only flys tomorrow as he went to the airport today and they said he needed a visa for South Africa. He is not in South Africa yet.

he is also not there for a epic training camp, he isn’t doing epic, he is essentially going to SA to get space and some less pressure with all going on to train before hitting the world cups and his eventual goal at Olympics

Is he not coming for the one that really matters ... the CTCT.!

Probably couldn't handle another 2nd place finish 🙃

I'll keep an eye out for him in Stellies, might even let him sit my wheel for a while if he asks nicely 😉

I heard the same thing, the rumour mill has been spinning.

Watch it turn out to be a "Tom Brady Retirement"😂

clearly not!

 

In hindsight he probably could have walked away after the covid season of 2020. There was a win in Td suisse in 22 and points jersey in 21 giro, but little else (if you don't count slovakian nat champs)

a PS top10 moments would be one helluva a list. Here's my fav (for now) half the tricks he pulled here are now banned by the UCI.

Does anyone recognise the other riders and/or the trail?

So many cycling fans were butt hurt by this move because he then could take a shorter line around a roundabout and won the race. The man thinks quickly and seizes opportunities were  others only see problems

Think the guy (Back Left) is his coach (Patxi Villa) - From Bhora days

Front left looks to be Benno  Willeit from Specialized Factory Racing.

Open to correction though
