Kasia Niewiadoma ended last year without a victory, but some alterations to the Canyon-SRAM rider's lead-in training programme could make the difference at her targeted season openers, Omloop Het Nieuwsblad on February 25 and Strade Bianche on March 4.

“My pre-season was pleasantly steady and went according to plan. I didn’t have to deal with any obstacles, so I had a secure and confident preparation for the season," Niewiadoma said.
