The article discusses the unfortunate performance of cyclists wearing bib number 11 during major races this year. It notes that while traditionally considered unlucky, the number 13 has been more problematic. Cyclist Domen Novak wore number 11 but did not experience misfortune. However, the number 11 was associated with several notable incidents, including the crash of Santiago Buitrago at the Giro and injuries to Jonas Vingegaard and Tadej Pogačar at the Tour de France and Vuelta. Both champions suffered serious injuries, with Vingegaard ending his season and Pogačar requiring surgery. The article also mentions Slovenian champion Tadej Pogačar's potential achievements in other competitions, highlighting his success in World Championships and his pursuit of breaking records.
