All good things must come to an end.
It’s been a true rollercoaster ride since our humble beginnings in 2016 and it’s been a pleasure to #ColourTheRoad with you.
Full statement below.
The @BaloiseLT finished today with laps of a circuit around Deinze.
Alicia featured in the main break of the day with 6 other riders, the WT teams pulled back in time for another sprint finish where Babette and Alicia finished in the top ten again.
The stage was neutralised following a crash at the start of the race. After a delay of about 50 mins, the race was restarted but shortened by 28km.
Of course, we wish everyone involved in the crash is okay!
Consistency! 🔥
Kristyna Burlova took 5th place in this morning's disrupted Stage 3a @BaloiseLT, which ended in a sprint.
6th, 7th, 5th on road stages so far this Tour!
Another top ten for Babette van der Wolf @BaloiseLT today, surfing the wheels well in the sprint final.
Heidi was active in breaks of the day before the race came back together.
