The Belgian-Dutch cycling website Wielerflits reported that some teams have raised the alarm about extra padded bras that reduce air resistance, which would be an advantage especially in individual time trials.
Therefore, the International Cycling Union (UCI) decided to carry out a special check of the equipment - bikes and clothing - just before the start of the fourth stage of the Tour de France, writes Cyclingnews, among others.
The 21-kilometre time trial will run between Gevrey-Chambertin and Dijon in the afternoon. Norwegian Sigrid Haugset will start in the leader's jersey.
