The troubles seem to move in squadrons. The Cofidis team can testify. After having been the victim at the start of the Tour de France of a flight of 11 bikes worth 13,000 euros each and finally all found, it is the women’s team of northern training which is this time targeted.
Committed to the “Baloise Ladies Tour” in Yerseke, in the province of Zealand in the Netherlands, the staff noted Wednesday by rising, the disappearance of several Look bikes. The race had not yet started but the girls lost before the first departure, part of their work tools.
Arthur Quilliec, the manager of Cofidis, confirmed in the Dutch media naked.NL, the disappearance of bikes without giving the exact number or the estimate of the loss “in the interest of the investigation”.
This did not prevent the girls from starting, the first step having been a prologue and they were able to use the time trial bikes which did not interest the thieves.
They must take this Thursday, the departure of the second step with these same devices which are not made for the online stages.
Bikes have not yet been found this Thursday.
