Snow, rain and gale-force winds hit the Canaries earlier this week after a relatively mild, dry winter, with pictures posted on Instagram of deep snow on the higher parts of one of Europe’s most popular holiday destinations - becau꧑se of its usual warm weather.

Team sources told Cyclingnews on Saturday that Thomas’ race program will not be affected by the bad weather. Having pulled out of Tirreno-Ad๊riatico because of illness, 🍃the 2018 Tour winner is next due to race in the Vuelta al País Vasco, which starts on April 8th.
