CJ – Do what’s right for you. Of course a full recovery and return to racing asap is what everyone would very much like to see, but there are plenty of things more important than bike racing….your health is one of them! BT

As a VDV fan, I am very sorry for him and wish him a speedy recovery.
Disappointment must be great and I measure how tough it must be to keep morale up. But in the long term nothing can stop the new Vande Velde that we saw in St Etienne this year from achieving even greater successes after he has recovered.
Good luck Christian!
