Setmana Ciclista Valenciana 2021 – Stage 3 [FULL STAGE] (ladies) (spanish)

May 8, 2021

Setmana Ciclista Valenciana 2021 – Stage 3 – Sagunto – Valencia : 120 km

Setmana Ciclista Valenciana’s move from February to May will undoubtedly have some impact on its overall position and importance on the early-season calendar. It is no longer held in conjunction with pre-season training camps nor can it be used as preparation or a test ahead of bigger Spring Classics. There are some benefits to its move to May, however, and its position after the Spring Classics is when stage racing season normally begins. Setmana Ciclista Valenciana now offers some much needed racing days in May and it kicks off 12 days of racing in Spain.
