So here are my hot take talking points:
a) some of them quit with a hope to do well in the Olympics instead?
b) a winter with all kinds of pandemic related inconveniences has affected their training, and many riders are finding they're less fit than they hoped to be?
c) it's just a random statistical spike with no particular reason as to why it happened this year?
