Road world champion Lotte Kopecky (SD Worx-Protime) has set her provisional programme for the end of the season, with a mixture of track and road racing on the cards for the Belgian and some big goals still to come, including a possible defence of her rainbow jersey in Rwanda in late September.
Kopecky will head to the track, not the road, for her first competition since the Tour de France Femmes, joining the Belgian track team at the Prague Summer Track event on August 24 and 25, Het Nieuwsblad report.
From there, Nieuwsblad say the Belgian is set to ride the Tour de l’Ardèche on the road as a build-up to a likely appearance at the road World Championships in Rwanda at the end of September.
However, after a difficult Tour de France, there are still some question marks over whether defending champion Kopecky will actually race in Rwanda. A return to the track and the Tour de l’Ardèche are likely ways for her to discover how her form is.
