With the cancellation of the Tour of Switzerland in the midst of the emerging Corona Virus pandemic, the cyclists participated in the virtual race that started on Wednesday (April 22) and continued until the 26th of the same month.
Swiss cyclist Killian Frankini was one of dozens of cyclists who participated from their homes in the race, as the world of cycling, along with most sports, almost came to a standstill due to the Covid-19 outbreak. .
Frankini was almost connected to the race, as he made his way on a stationary bike on his balcony through a royal road he was looking at in his forehead.
Frankini finished 36 of 57 contestants on the opening day of the five-day race, which ends on April 26. He said he liked the idea of a virtual race, but that it was far from the real race as he could see the other runners in the tournament.
Dennis Rohan won time 0: 53: 07.4 before Nicholas Roch and James Whelan in second and third place respectively.
Tour de Suisse is a one-week road bike race that takes place every year in June in Switzerland.
