Kirchen returns for High Road at Pais Vasco
High Road’s stage race specialist Kim Kirchen will be back in action in the Tour of the Basque Country, which starts on Monday in Legazpi. The Luxemberg-born rider had to miss out on the E3 Harelbeke one-day race, and the Tour of Flanders because of illness, but will be back for the grueling six-day stage race in northern Spain. “He’s a little bit behind where he should be form-wise because of falling ill, but his focus remains very much on the Ardennes Classics.” team manager Rolf Aldag said.
