Marianne Vos to compete in Giro d’Italia Donne and Tour de France Femmes

Marianne Vos will compete in both the Giro d'Italia Donne and the Tour de France Femmes. Vos had previously committed to riding in the first Tour de France Femmes at the end of July, but Jumbo-Visma has confirmed that the 35-year-old will also compete in the Italian race.

The Giro d'Italia Donne starts at the end of this month, starting in Sardinia on June 30 and ending in Padova on June 10, only 14 days before the Tour de France Femmes. Vos will compete in both races this summer. She will also compete in the Dutch national road race championships the weekend before the start of the Giro d'Italia Donne.
