Ryan back on the bike after six months of injury

Ryan back on the bike after six months of injury

U23 rider Archie Ryan has returned to training. The rider of the Jumbo-Visma Development Team has been struggling with knee problems for six months but is currently starting to build up his fitness.

Ryan can now ride for an hour at a time. "And it feels fantastic", the 21-year-old Irishman says. "I've had quite a tough time. There were weeks when I had to return after twenty minutes because it was still impossible to ride without pain. Now I can start to build in peace and quiet."

"I am hungry to come back and work towards my highest level"

Ryan had a very successful 2022, with stage wins in the Tour de Slovaquie and the Ronde de l'Isard, and fourth place in the Tour de l'Avenir. "After the season, I got sick, which meant that I had to stay off the bike for longer than I had hoped", Ryan explains what happened in the winter of 2022.

"When I got back on the bike in mid-November, my knee started bothering me. From that moment on, it was a long nightmare trying to solve the problems. I have seen many specialists, worked with my physiotherapist a lot, and started swimming to keep fit. I am glad there is a light at the end of the tunnel."

Putting a date on his return to competition is difficult, but Ryan hopes to pin on a number again by the end of the summer. "I am hungry to come back and work towards my highest level", he says. "Last season was a great year. Hopefully, I can get back to that level. But I'm already enjoying the one hour I get to sit on the bike. I'm just glad the nightmare of the last six months is behind me."
