After narrowly missing out to
Lorena Wiebes on taking the first-ever Yellow Jersey at the Tour de France Femmes, Vos took victory on stage two in Provins and with it the overall lead of the race. The
Jumbo-Visma rider would then keep a hold of the lead until stage seven when she relinquished it to the eventual winner
Annemiek van Vleuten.
"If I look back 10 or 15 years, it's such a big difference. So many races live on television. Fans are able to follow it from all over the world. But the level is really high. So nearly every week there is very tough competition. And for us as riders, that's why we do it. That makes it even more beautiful," Vos says of the growth of women's cycling. "I just enjoy it. It doesn't feel like a sacrifice to train or to work. I'm grateful for this possibility. So that's why I'm still around, maybe."
