The late-summer one-day races on the Women's WorldTour continue at the 2019 Postnord Vårgårda WestSweden this weekend. The organisers offer two separate but back-to-back events, beginning with a team time trial on Saturday, August 17, and followed by a road race on Sunday, August 18. Boels Dolmans will be vying for a fourth consecutive victory in the team time trial, but they face tough competition.
