Most Recent: Women? edit

The Infobox should really list the most recent winners in the women's category as well. Is there a way to do this with the current Cycling Race Infobox template? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.209.146.71 (talk) 12:12, 27 March 2017 (UTC)Reply

non encyclopedic, ad-like tone. edit

the page has some non encyclopedic, ad like tone in some places. i am willing to make the changes myself but I'm unfamiliar with the Wiki guidelines to do this confidently.

example problem areas (emphasis mine)

Medics The Mediclinic race hospital is **equipped to handle any medical emergency, either at the village or out on the course**. A UCI anti-doping official and an anti-doping caravan also accompany the medical team.

Route marshals A team of thirty trained marshals **not only show riders the way, but ensure the safety of cyclists**. The marshals are trained in first-aid, with a number having more advanced medical training. 2001:4DF7:0:694D:42A6:F6A:6074:ACCC (talk) 19:45, 10 June 2021 (UTC)Reply
