LifePlus-Wahoo stay in Tour of Britain Women on borrowed equipment after all their bikes were stolen

After having all 14 of their bikes stolen at the Tour of Britain Women, LifePlus-Wahoo’s continued participation in the race was plunged into doubt ahead of stage 2.

The British Continental Team were forced to search for a solution to make the start in Wrexham which was scheduled for 11:15 local time. However, thanks to the generosity of the peloton, with other teams providing spare bikes and mechanics offering their time, they have been able to take the start.
