EF Education-TIBCO-SVB’s Veronica Ewers showed her impressive climbing form on stage 4 of the Giro Donne

The 28-year-old US rider, who only took up cycling a few years ago, attacked from a reduced peloton on the second category 3 climb, Passo Montevacà, with 33km to go and quickly built a gap. The move looked like it had the potential for a victory in Borgo Val di Taro.
