The Vuelta a Espana is not the only race undergoing big problems today, the Renewi Tour is on the road and as it stands, the peloton has stopped on the road in protest of the dangerous stage finale.
The final day of racing in Belgium ending in Bilzen features a small hilltop close to the finish then followed by narrow and windy roads into the final kilometer. Riders worry about the safety situation in the final lap and are discussing with the race organization.
UPDATE: After a few minutes of discussion the race resumed. It is reported that the bonifications have been eliminated on the day, so as to see riders take less risks in the green kilometer and stage finale. The times for the overall classification will also be taken at the time of the final hilltop.

- 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
