The 23-year old reflects on the national championships that transformed the way he sees himself, the instinctive jump that won the race, and the long stretch of consistency that followed. There is an honest look at the European Championships too, where Rasmus rode in support of Jonas Vingegaard on a day when the sport’s margins showed their teeth.

And of course, with a Decathlon rider in the chair, Aidan had to ask about the name everyone is whispering: Paul Seixas. Rasmus describes the nineteen year old with a mix of admiration and disbelief. “Built different,” he says. A glimpse of where the next era may lead.
