So, what did you miss?<\/strong><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Vincenzo wants more<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>All three Grand Tours and both Italian Monuments. Sounds like an amazing career for any cyclist, let alone an Italian one. Vincenzo Nibali, however, is not content.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m not satisfied. I want to win other important races,\u201d the 34-year-old Sicilian told La Gazzetta dello Sport.<\/p>\n<p>He sat in 4th place in this year\u2019s Tour de France when a fan\u2019s camera strap caused him to fall and break his vertebra on stage 12. Bahrain-Merida\u2019s lawyers are still communicating with the Grand Boucle officials about compensation.<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/Bqh8lTtgsn4\/<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf I have vented out recently, it was only because this year was particularly hard because of the crash. Without the fractured vertebra in the Tour, it would not have been that way. I had made immense sacrifices to find the ideal condition. And everything went up in smoke and also compromised the World Championships.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The 34-year-old already looks towards the future. Nibali likes both the Giro and the Tour routes. And he admits he might go for both. From what he\u2019s saying, you can tell that he is still very ambitious.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLooking ahead, I\u2019m going for another two years after 2019. But I do not want to be categorical, maybe I\u2019ll continue up until I\u2019m 40 years old, or maybe I\u2019ll get tired first. Or in two years. I could concentrate only on the Classics.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>What do you think? Does Vincenzo still have it in him?<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The love<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/Bq4VCa2n_oT\/?utm_source=ig_embed<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Yeah, right<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BrFOQfqn9Tq\/<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Strava still ok, we hope!<\/strong><\/h2>\n<div class=\"embed-controller-wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">NATIONWIDE CRISIS, o2 network goes down, people forced to talk to each other.<\/p>\n<p>Panic ensues as eye contact and friendly smiles towards strangers becomes the latest \u2018trend\u2019<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; Alex Dowsett (@alexdowsett) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/alexdowsett\/status\/1070581650629767170?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 6, 2018<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async data-src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/div>\n<h2><strong>Cold<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>https:\/\/twitter.com\/RohanDennis\/status\/1070283268673687554<\/p>\n<h2><strong>What a fantastic tree!<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BrCvczJHDei\/<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Another Monday is here and our news from the world of cycling with it!
