Elisa Longo Borghini will not be competing in the upcoming La Vuelta Femenina, she announced on social media, saying she had contracted an "aggressive stomach bug".
Longo Borghini started the season strongly, winning the UAE Tour, but missed the Trofeo Alfredo Binda and Strade Bianche in March after catching COVID-19 and said she spent 10 days in bed while sick.
