Vuelta Ciclista a Venezuela

Report by Symmetrics Fuelled By FarmPure

It was a regular day at the Venezuelan office for Symmetrics Fuelled by FarmPure, with very little hills and very bad roads. With potholes all over, many of the riders were seen at the back of the caravan, getting their handlebars re-adjusted. Although a break did get clear for 3/4 of the race, ultimately it came back together for a very hectic bunch spring. Jake Erker managed to finish just outside the top 10, but more importantly, the team stayed safe in the bunch.
