After winning the Tour of Hungary and returning to Germany, Huang Chong's team didn't schedule any more races for him for quite a while.
Aside from attending team training sessions, he was essentially "unemployed" at home, watching the Giro d'Italia with Chen Junyi.
For Huang Chong, this was undoubtedly a good opportunity to rest. He also had a growing suspicion that the team would be entrusting him with a major responsibility in his next race.
The reason was that during team training, Aldag had already instructed the logistics support group to have him train with the main lineup.
The main focus of his daily training was still to act as a lead-out rider for the team's Core Commander, Roglič.
He had joined Bora several months ago, and while he had trained with Roglič before during full-team sessions, those had been different.
On closer inspection, those were merely collective training sessions for every member of the entire team.
