Chapter 2: Chase the Storm
Kasper Asgreen finds focus in foul weather, preparing for the season in the harsh environment of his homeland, Denmark. Training in the new Pro Team GORE-TEX Lightweight Rain Jacket. Bringing his best in the worst conditions.
EF Pro Cycling’s classics contender and former Flanders winner has his own individual approach to conditioning. Whilst others choose to live and train further south, Asgreen steels himself for battle in the arctic wind and rain of Scandinavia.
The racing season is long and chaotic. So I’m not wasting any time.
