Zdenek won’t start in Milano-San Remo next Saturday. Our favorite decided to skip La Primavera and to take some rest at Mallorca. “But I do start in Dwars door Vlaanderen in Waregem next Wednesday.”
“Tirreno-Adriatico was quite good. I hoped for a good result, but it didn’t work out for me, even though the condition is there. And we had some success with the team, because Fernando Gaviria won a stage.”
After the Tirreno, Styby went to Mallorca. “And I’ll stay here till Dwars door Vlaanderen. No, no Milano-San Remo for me. Why not? I rode San Remo four times. Two times in very bad weather conditions and the other two times I crashed.”
“And so I chose to take some rest on Mallorca and ride in Waregem instead of in San Remo. Also, Dwars door Vlaanderen is now part of the UCI World Tour. I never rode the race before, but I look forward to it. After that I’ll also race in the E3 Prijs Vlaanderen and Gent-Wevelgem.”
