European champ Marianne Vos (Waowdeals) will miss a month of racing after collapsing in Liège-Bastogne-Li ège on Sunday and fracturing her collarbone. The Dutch biker had successful surgery to repair the break and will certainly be restricted to indoor training for the coming weeks.
I won'’ t be competing during the next four weeks, which implies I will certainly need to miss the GP Elsy Jacobs, Trofee Maarten Wijnants and the Wielerfestival Aalburg, the Waowdeals leader claimed.
The elevation training which I had prepared throughout the 2nd half of May doesn'’ t seem to be jeopardised. It is expected that I can pick up where I ended somewhere in June. It'’ s unsatisfactory that points don'’ t go as prepared I was well reducing into the pace – however fortunately, the season is still long.
Vos described the occurrence, which happened in the crux of the race with simply over 20km to go.
It was going hard in the run-up to the following climb, the Roche-Aux-Faucons as every person wanted to be well placed, Vos said.
There was a crash on the left-side of the road in a short descent.you can find more here click here from Our Articles I got on the other side and saw Jeanne (Korevaar) take a tumble in a soft turn to the right. The group was alarmed which made me crash and roll-over, touchdown on my right-hand side.
Vos got a spare bike from the group car, completing the race in 56th location, 6:24 behind winner Anna van der Breggen (Boels Dolmans), yet understood something was wrong as she had problem pulling on the handlebars.

After the race, I had an examination in the group bus, after which I went to the hospital in Maastricht for a scan where the fracture was validated. I then had surgery at a specialist in Amersfoort.
The procedure went extremely well – it'’ s wonderful that people wished to assist so rapidly. I have to unwind for a couple of days. Depending upon the pain, I can after that carefully start training on the Tacx.
