Cav attacked

[mcelliott]

Just read on his Insta that his house was broken into, his family threatened at knife point and he himself was violently attacked wtf.

This is lowest of the low. Involving children and family while Mark himself is recovering from a collapsed lung and broken ribs. One of the reasons I don’t aspire to have certain ‘luxury’ goods is that people don’t mind them buying even if they are stolen.

Half the people I see with luxury items on their person I question in my mind how they attained it. Because a 15k watch on a guy with missing teeth, lack of manners, nefarious acquaintances and disheveled appearance. Doesn’t look like a guy who worked hard through skilled manual labour nor an office employee. Not to mention the fact they put their wrist to their face, kind of showing off they have a stolen item. What normal person talks with their hand near their face, fervently waving their watch to an average Joe who wouldn’t be in the market for such a piece. Ffs.

Someone has been planning that one for a while on cav as those Richard Mille's are in the hundreds of thousands and he races with one on quite a lot.

Hope they catch the scum.

If he flaunts his wealth or sponsorship deals it’s no surprise really.
Robbery and assault are not on but in this day and age you have to ask yourself questions about the consequences of being flashy and showing off your wealth.

I know!

If only all those sponsored people could just keep it to themselves and tell no one…

There is a big difference between an energy drink or clothing brand sponsor and luxury watches,especially when you go for a bike ride.

Don't be stupid. The ONLY people at fault are the thieving scum.

Errrr no ….

What you’ve done there is Victim blaming and that is wrong on so many levels.

I’d suggest you stop and think about that and maybe educate yourself as to why people might disagree with your view here.

I don't think wearing a watch is flaunting anything or being flashy or showing off. But perhaps that's how you perceive it?

By your logic, we should all drive Dacias.

If you fan boys actually bothered reading my first reply you would have noted I said it wasn’t on and you had to think about potential consequences.
There are consequences to every action,some good and some bad.

What's a fan boy ?

I see that term regularly on PH used a put down but I don't know what that means.

you’re still doing it.

It’s not right to blame the victim in any way for the crime.

You need to do some learning about why this is bad rather than doubling down on it…

Used to be a cyclist.

I do find Richard Mille adorning athletes with watches a bit odd, Allaphillipe and Pogacar wear them while they race as Cav does/did, seems a recipe for a mugging really.

That's news to the team he just signed up to for the 2022 season
