Le Tourmalet: Why is there a religion called ‘landismo’?

Let me tell you this Wednesday about a cyclist I admire beyond his sporty quality, his name is Mikel Landa, and he has perhaps unwittingly had the joy of creating. a religion called ‘landismo’As has not been done since Miguel Induráin decided to hang the bike, on January 2, 1997, which fascinated fans of all kinds who can forgive him if he has truly committed all his sins and tremble the most with his attacks (or attempts). And it has already rained.

Landismo is a religion. And it cannot be expressed any other way. Attack Landa! And you get up from the sofa, but its border is overpowered by other figures a few meters after it occurs. He goes to the Landa Giro and you expect him to beat the two thirds he won in 2015 and 2022. And even though his former team had greater success in Astana before signing for Sky, Movistar and now Bahrain, the confidence he had in Italy eight years ago , unfortunately for Alberto Contador, the Madrid cyclist-winning Giro edition would now have a winner from Alava.

misfortunes

Falls at the most unexpected moments, wind cuts while others are successful, and sometimes giving up on races that might inspire him have blocked the way of a top-notch runner, old-fashioned mountaineer, and the like in the mountains. and everyone who knows him says he’s perfect in every way.

That’s why ‘landismo’ exists. And so every Landa limit is experienced as the top goal of the most admired strikerlike the most accomplished tennis player backstroking, or the most skilled driver taking the wheel. Because he’s a determined cyclist, Vallter is the one in the 2,000 who’s attacking at Volta that interests us right now, or putting his team to work for a victory as he has done so many times in the Tour or the Giro. Partly because he had the misfortune of crossing paths with which cycling stars, ‘old men’ like Chris Froome, had to live with, as happened to Mathieu van der Poel’s grandfather Raymond Poulidor, he was rejected in part. In his 2017 Paris victory, he gave himself socially on a Tour. Landa could at least aspire to the Champs Elysees podiumor above all today with the incredible new generation led by Tadej Pogacar and Remco Evenepoel.

They’re almost 10 years younger than him, impossible to beat. But Landa appears to be there to break the race on Volta’s first mountain stage, not to wrestle against another talent of her generation named Primoz Roglic in Tirreno-Adriatico, or to make fans dream in Basque after all. The next Round, starting in Bilbao and going through Álava del alma, is where he can fight for that podium in Paris, where he escaped by just one second in 2017. It’s incredible to lose her for a time that doesn’t even carry a sigh. Seeing is believing.

For all these reasons, there is a sporting religion called ‘landismo’, which surrenders to the border with the cyclist from Alava who forgives all his sinners if he really exists and is sure that the desired attack will finally come… Amine.
