TOUR DE FEMMES STAGE 6
Emma in the break! 😍 Stage 6 was highlighted in Emma’s agenda and for a good reason: two years ago, she won this very stage. And guess what? She made it into the break again! A group of 19 riders got away, with FDJ doing some serious damage on the front. Chabbey was the last one standing from the original move, but as soon as she was back, it was Squiban from UAE who launched the winning attack. What a move! So, so impressive! No shake-ups in the GC yet, but… the hardest stages are still to come. 😮‍💨 Enjoyyyyyy our daily massage table call and if you have any more questions, let us know! XOXO, La course de Gossip 🩷💛🩷💛

TOUR DE FEMMES STAGE 3
It’s time for another stage recap (sorry for the one day delay…)! First of all: Wiebes takes the win! SD works did what they had to do, a 5 min 5 min training for Femke Gerritse.🤪 Chasing down that break for the perfect bunch sprint. But it wasn’t all smooth… big crash inside the final 5km 😬 Maybe Emma has some behind-the-scenes on that one? Also… sad news: Longo is out, another GC leader ‘less’. But on a brighter note: Marianne’s back in yellow, of course she is. The GOAT doing GOAT things. 💛 And how about that bunch sprint?! So nice to see Ally on the podium with a super strong 3rd and Liane flying in at 5th power women🥰 We’re also getting into the real essentials this episode: • Which sun lotion actually works when you’re sweating on the bike? • And a tech tip you’ll thank us for: the Epic Weather App. Download the GPX, throw it in the app, and boom – you get everything from wind to weather to where you’ll suffer the most. It’s so easy, even Flootje figured it out herself 😉 (Yes, you can download the file straight from VeloViewer and it shows all your precious numbers too.) Let’s gooo 🚴‍♀️💬 XOXO, La course de gossip 💛🩷
