“I’m not cycling food”: his start to the Tour, his popularity, the Covid… Romain Bardet confides

He smiles when he is told that in addition to an anti-Covid mask, he would also like to wear Zorro’s. Not to play masked vigilantes but to be forgotten in the fight for the podium. But at 31, Romain Bardet pedals between maturity and liberation. Now with the Dutch DSM, he seems happy again on the Tour where he is 6th in the general classification, 22 seconds from the podium.
