That's a real shame, she was going to look gor stage wins.

That crash was massive

Wiebes DQed and chucked off the race for riding an under weight bike!

 

[Dogtrousers]

How underweight? That's a silly error

 

[mididoctors]

Sack the mechanic..aren't they weighed BEFORE the race

Stage 2 Roncade - Caorle 156km

Check the weather for wind

Weibes is tough to beat

Because she’s a cheater with a lighter bike than the rest.

I wonder how much under weight her bike was ?

Sdworx statement. Bike weighed in at 6.78kg which is 20g under the 6.8kg minimum

I wonder how much under weight her bike was ?

Yes, half an energy gel. Rules are rules. In reality it would have saved her a thousandth of a second or something daft but the line is drawn in the sand.

Shame the UCI aren’t as hot on shoot course design.

It’s awful. The ITT on stage 4 is going to be tough and therefore decisive.
Other than that, I will watch next Saturday, although I suspect we will only get to see half of the Finestre.
As for the rest of the parcour, if it was in a men’s race, we’d all be tearing our hair out and wailing in anguish.
