'Short but powerful': Here's why you can't miss the Festival Elsy Jacobs

After a busy spring packed with one-day racing, the peloton changes gears.
Due to COVID-19 disruptions, the women’s calendar has been thrown out of kilter, with just one stage race so far since the season began in February.
That changes with four key stage races filling the cycling landscape during the next few weeks, beginning Friday with the Festival Elsy Jacobs in Luxembourg. Other stage races on the horizon include Setmana Ciclista Valenciana, Vuelta a Burgos Feminas and the International Thüringen Rundfahrt der Frauen.
U.S. national champion Ruth Winder (Trek-Segafredo) will be among the contenders this weekend after a strong classics campaign that saw her win Brabantse Pijl. Winder was forced to miss Liège-Bastogne-Liège after she was considered a close contact of someone who tested positive for COVID-19.
