‘No matter!’ – Breaking unwritten rules of cycling still wouldn’t have stopped Annemiek van Vleuten on Stage 8
Annemiek van Vleuten's dominance is such that even if her rivals attacked at the moment she had a mechanical on Stage 8 – and, in doing so, broke one of the unwritten rules of cycling — it would not matter, according to Adam Blythe speaking on The Breakaway. The Movistar rider suffered an untimely mechanical on Stage 8 of the Tour de France Femmes that saw her change bikes three times. She also suffered a puncture.
