A total of 40 riders that started the 2023 Giro d'Italia have now abandoned the race. The latest of these riders is Team DSM's Harm Vanhoucke.
With the weather playing havoc with the health of the riders, illness has been the reason for a vast majority of withdrawals at the race. Vanhoucke was similarly affected by just such an illness with stomach issues the reported reason for the 25-year-old Belgian to step off his bike.
"Unfortunately, Harm Vanhoucke has abandoned the Giro d'Italia due to ongoing fatigue and gastric complaints," an announcement by the official Twitter account of Team DSM has revealed. "We wish him the best as he heads home to rest!"

- I think you overestimate scientific knowledge and for sure the spreading of it. There are huge numbers of people in similar situations, if there were an easy solution somebody would be making big money out of it. Nerve pain can have many complex origins or be due to complex combinations of reasons. Even if you discover a reason there is not always a solution. Migraines haven’t been solved either. I have had lower back/hip nerve pains on and off for over 30 years, no kind of doctor has ever found a way to reduce, prevent or solve the problem. It may just be that some people are born with nerves that are too short or get twisted out of position during certain movements.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
- Amazing ride by her and very promising for her future. On a side note, it’s a bit worrying all these wins riders have after emotional moments in their lives, someone will come up with emotional doping at some point. Maybe give them fake news just before a big race to get hormones pumping.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
