🇬🇧 Cat Ferguson calls for better U23 pathways in women’s cycling

"There are no examples where you can look of girls who have gone to a good U23 team and raced lots of U23 aces and not being just completely thrown into a WT race on an U23 team"

Ellen van Dijk wrote her latest column about Amy Pieters and how she didn’t get to choose her last race to say goodbye. It made me cry this morning. I love Amy and I still think of her, I’m happy Ellen gave her this 🩷🩷 She has shared a translated post on Instagram 👇🏻

A little thread.

We have very few professional bike races left on open roads in NL. There is a population density of about 500 people per km2 which makes it one of the densest populated countries in Europe. To compare, France has 121 but Belgium has almost 400 so this not he only reason.

“She who dares, wins” 💕 This weekend Mags showed the world what her teammates have always known: she races with her whole heart.

And if it feels like our squad hasn’t stopped screaming for joy since Saturday… well, that’s because we haven’t 🤣🫶⬇️⬇️⬇️

NEED to share. A week ago a TikTok went viral of 2 Belgians pranking their grandpa by saying they don’t care about Evenepoel. The grandpa was telling his grandchildren all Remco’s achievements and how much a fan he is. Remco saw it and sent a video to the grandpa saying how much he appreciates him 🥰

As is often the case, it's a Canadian woman who is better than all the Canadian men.
But the men get most of the sports funding.

ELB: "I talked with a few riders in my group and they said: no I wait for her, no I still have her—so I knew we lost the race at two laps to go. But we must give credit to Vallieres and the others who were ahead because they rode brave and smart and strong, they were the best today." #procycling
