October 13th.
Only two days remained until the official start of the Tour of Guangxi.
All the major teams had now arrived in Guangxi and begun their pre-race training.
For the World Tour, the competition for results at the Tour of Guangxi wasn't taken as seriously by the major teams.
Perhaps only the development riders, sent by their teams to gain experience, would go all out.
After all, competing in a top-tier league like this was the perfect opportunity for them to turn pro or find a new team.
If any development rider could snatch a stage win at the Tour of Guangxi, it would be a massive accomplishment that made the entire trip worthwhile.
A newcomer always needed some impressive results to make a name for themselves.
