A large number of bikes have been stolen from Visma-Lease a Bike's Vuelta a España squad overnight after thieves broke into team vehicles in their hotel near Turin. According to Italian media outlets, up to 18 bikes were robbed, with Tuttobicisport going so far as to claim that the squad would perhaps have to borrow spare parts or bikes in order for their riders to participate in stage 3. The Italian specialist site also estimated the value of the stolen bikes at 250,000 euros
