The WorldTour team's effort – along with the Conti♏nental 'academy' team – comes as the 2020 pro cycling season continues to look more in doubt as the reaction to Covid-19 coronavirus deepens.
Millions of cyclists around the world are confined to their homes because authorities in many countries fear that amateur recreational cyclists rid🙈ing outdoors will only put more burden on already-burdened hospitals.
Pro riders are allowed to ride outdoors in countries like Italy, as some governments recognise it is their occupation – but many are 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:now using home trainers to stay in shape so that they will be ready to race again if༺ the the season picks up again.
Meanwhile, social distancing – minimising contact with others – have become the watchwords as societies try and slow the spread of the now-global pandemic. Israel Start-Up Natio💙n is hoping their event will provide community to the isolated and remind others of the need to behave responsibly.
