Thuringia: High damage: racing bikes stolen at the Thuringia Tour

Schleiz (dpa/th) - The Belgian women's team Lotto Soudal Ladies had five high-quality racing bikes stolen on Friday night on the sidelines of the 34th Thuringia Tour. The Ridley bikes were in a mobile home that was broken into in a hotel car park in Weimar.

"I'm shocked and sad. I know what that means," said former racer and tour director Vera Hohlfeld. The damage amounts to around 45,000 euros. The team wants to continue the tour on the fourth stage in Schleiz on Friday with spare wheels.
