Alejandro Valverde is made from another pasta. Two days after his Saturday romp, when he was hit by a car while training with other cyclists in the road, Alejandro Valverde from Las Lumbreras is back on the bike. He doesn’t want his last season as a professional cyclist being ruined and has begun to prepare for his next commitments. He wants to continue to enjoy the sport that has made him a great Spanish champion in recent years. .
Valverde sent a reassuring message from La Arrixaca, where he was being treated for the injury on Saturday: “Everything had been a scare but I’m fine,” said he.
Movistar rider is still suffering from some minor injuries and discomfort in his buttock. He will now be able to compete in Vuelta a Espana, which begins in Utrecht on August 19. It is unclear if he will compete in the Clasica De Ordizia on August 25th. It seems that he will run the Clasica de San Sebastian before facing the Vuelta. This is a test where Valverde I feel very comfortable. He won it twice, in 2008 and 2014. He was second once and finished third twice.
The man who ran over the Murcian cyclist with his friends last Saturday on the road connecting Javali Nuevo and Alcantarilla was taken into custody by the head of the Investigating Court number 3 in Murcia. Cristobal, a retired Civil Guard Guard and resident of La Nora, gave his account of what happened to the judge.
The man, along with his wife, and sister-in law, were traveling on the RM-560 in their Citroen, Xsara models, when he encountered a group of twenty cyclists. He waited for several minutes until he could see the moment when the athletes passed him.
According to sources, he did it by occupying the entire opposite side of the road to avoid danger. After completing the maneuver, Cristobal returned to the travel lane and was rebuked by some cyclists who insulted him. Cristobal stopped to inquire about the cause of the insults. According to Cristobal, the athletes started to throw water bottles at the car, causing severe damage to the bodywork.
He said that he had stopped the vehicle’s movement to stop them throwing objects and being attacked and had been able to destabilize one from his bike. “I did not reverse the car nor run over anyone.”
The accuser’s version of events, confirmed by Ariane Santiago (the lawyer who defends him), is far different from the statements made by those affected by the outrage. Reports state that the vehicle intentionally ran over cyclists, hitting them after stopping and turning around. It also ran over Pedro Moya and Alejandro Valverde, who were his friends. The license plate was photographed by a motorist who witnessed the whole sequence. The search device was not needed as the ex-civil guard surrendered to the Murcia Local Police Headquarters in La Alberca on Saturday afternoon. He was then transferred to Carmen District Police Station, where he provided the same testimony that he had in court.
The magistrate who is investigating the case knows that there are signs of possible road safety offenses, injuries, and abandonment at the scene of an accident. However, it is not clear that provisional detention would be justified if the circumstances that would justify provisional arrest, such as the risk of escape, concealment, destruction or destruction of evidence, or prevent criminal repetition. She also consented to the intervention of her vehicle and the precautionary withdrawing of her driving licence.
After being stationed in the Basque Country for many years, the accused was charged with assisting at the Murcia Institute of Law Medicine. He was also called before the Court of Instruction number 3 of Murcia’s capital and was ordered to withdraw his driver’s license as well as intervene when he saw signs of road safety, injuries, or abandoning the accident scene.
