August 20th.
For all the athletes from China who had represented their country at the recent Paris Olympic Games, this was undoubtedly a very important day.
Because today, a commendation ceremony for the Paris Olympic Games athletes was to be held in the Great Hall of the People in the Capital.
It was undoubtedly a great pity.
But as a professional athlete, he had his own responsibilities.
These responsibilities included striving for his own professional career and continuing to cultivate China's presence in professional road cycling at the international level.
In short, any athlete still competing in professional events in overseas leagues had to choose between attending the commendation and continuing to race; they could only do one.
At 1:30 PM European time, after all the warm-up activities organized by the Vuelta a España hosts had concluded, the first race day back in Spain officially began.
