\\n
\\nIt turned out to be a timely conversation, coming as it did hot on the heels of news that Cian Uijtdebroeks had walked out on Bora-Hansgrohe to sign for Jumbo-Visma - his agent claimed after his Bora deal had been terminated, the team said a year before it was due to expire.\\xa0

\\nHere, Aldag talks to us about Uijtdebroeks\\u2019 shock exit and what it could mean for Bora, the rider and the sport. We also, of course, discuss the star signing who has recently moved the other way, from Jumbo to Bora, Primo\\u017e Rogli\\u010d. There\\u2019s much more besides \\u2013 on Rolf\\u2019s own career, the winning formula he helped to create at HTC High Road, Jan Ullrich\\u2019s belated doping confession and Mark Cavendish\\u2019s hopes of another Tour de France stage win.
