MIKEL LANDA | A New Chapter, Climbing Tips, Giro d'Italia

[Video on YouTube]

Join us as we delve into the heart-pounding world of professional cycling as Mikel Landa, the experienced Basque climber, gears up for an exciting season with Soudal Quick-Step.


Fresh from a stellar performance in the 2023 Vuelta and a podium at the 2022 Giro d’Italia, Landa takes on a supporting role for Remco Evenepoel in the Tour de France, all while anticipating a lead in the 2024 Vuelta a España.


We'll explore Landa's passion for climbing and the Giro d’Italia, as well as his admiration for Evenepoel's determination, as they strive for that essential rider-to-rider connection. We’ll also bring you some invaluable climbing training tips, techniques, in-and-out of the saddle, and the burning question: Does he glance at his power meter during a race? Get ready for a thrilling journey into the world of cycling prowess and camaraderie!
