Now the 28-year-old is aiming for the cycling WC in Australia – which will be her first road championship.
“Now we hope that she will be completely healthy and have time to get a few good passes before the departure for Australia,” says Lucas’ union captain Persson in a press release.
Sweden’s team as a whole: Rissveds, Julia Borgström, Hanna Nilsson and Nathalie Eklund. In the men’s race, Tobias Ludvigsson is so far the only Swede.
The WC in Wollongong, roughly eight miles south of Sydney, will be decided on September 18–25.
