The first few weeks of 2021 have been dedicated to winter training for the pros.
Most teams are currently undergoing their winter training camps across Europe, with many squads opting for the warmer climates of Spain.
While it often stings to watch the pros riding in shorts during the winter in the UK and parts of the US, it's not always sunshine and espressos.
