Scott Thwaites is at the Vuelta a Espa\\xf1a as part of one of the most successful Grand Tour teams, Alpecin-Fenix. But it\'s something of a miracle that he\'s here at all, after a crash in 2018 left him with a broken spine, neck, ribs and sternum.
\\n
\\nHe raced domestically in the UK in 2019 before returning to the big time last year. In this episode he tells us about his crash and comeback.\\xa0
\\n
\\nHe\\u2019s 31 now and out of contract at the end of the year, but in the meantime he is relishing the experience of being back at his first Grand Tour since his accident and in a team that \\u2013 even without its star, Mathieu van der Poel \\u2013 has continued its winning ways at the Vuelta.\\xa0
