CPA calls for improved safety standards following death of Demoitie

The president of the Professional Cyclists Association (CPA) Gianni Bugno has called for improved safety regulations at races following the death of Antoine Demoitié after he was struck by a motorcycle during Sunday’s Gent-Wevelgem. Demoitié had crashed along with several other riders when a race motorcycle fell on them as it reportedly tried to swerve around the accident.
