The regular news of road race cancellations that started with the COVID-19 pandemic early last year has extended into 2021 as, despite the emergence of vaccines, the health crisis is far from over. 

Infection rates continue to rise and new strains have emerged so measures to try and control the spread - from travel limitations to shutdowns - continue to have a significant impact on life in general and sport hasn’t been any exception.

Cyclingnews is the world's leader in English-language coverage of professional cycling. Started in 1995 by University of Newcastle professor Bill Mitchell, the site was one of the first to provide breaking news and results over the internet in English. The site was purchased by Knapp Communications in 1999, and owner Gerard Knapp built it into the definitive voice of pro cycling. Since then, major publishing house Future PLC has owned the site and expanded it to include top features, news, results, photos and tech reporting. The site continues to be the most comprehensive and authoritative English voice in professional cycling.
