There were moments of great uncertainty experienced by the caravan preceding the race at the Tour of Magnificent Qinghai.
About a hundred kilometers from the finish line of the third stage in Menyuan, the organization's, media's, and teams' vehicles found themselves blocked by some rocks that had fallen on the race route.
Vehicles immediately intervened on site to resolve the situation, but for several moments there was fear that, given the delicate circumstances, the stage might be interrupted due to road impassability.
Fortunately, thanks to the promptness and effectiveness with which the organization worked to clean and secure the track as soon as possible, this scenario was averted and, after a long wait, the entire convoy was able to resume its journey towards the finish line.
The landslide, which occurred in an area of the Datong river valley, was likely caused by the rains that have been affecting and continue to affect the area in these hours.
