Recently, the School Council of the Basque Country officially recognized the value of Line Up Live Up in promoting drug use prevention and seeking to achieve developmental goals in an innovative way spoke on the value of the different aspects of the programme in particular “the search for transversal competences for life which students will achieve through sports especially in the area of ​​drug addiction prevention.” The Mayor of Santurtzi thanked the Euskadi School Council for the recognition and extended the award to all those involved in the project – students teachers and families – without whose collaboration the work could not be carried out cross-sector collaboration is a major factor behind the success of the initiative in Santurtzi Addiction Prevention Expert of the City Council expressed appreciation for the participation of the Parents Association of the Axular Institute when involving families in the development of the programme Line Up Live Up was implemented with 110 students in two public schools with the committed engagement of physical education teachers school counsellors and parent associations Despite the challenges faced during the COVID-19 pandemic which led to the temporary suspension of the programme youth successfully completed the programme and took part in a certification ceremony Learning from this innovative experience and contributing to the evidence of what works to prevent youth crime and violence is central both for UNODC and to the city of Santurtzi in partnership with the local university and research institutions will conduct a mid-term evaluation at the end of 2021 and an impact study in 2023 These studies will aim to assess how the programme was implemented and what the effects of have been on the knowledge attitudes and behaviour of participating youth Additional information:Youth Crime Prevention through Sport initiativeIn Spain, Santurtzi municipality is the first in Europe to launch UNODC's Line Up, Live Up Race leader escapes with Landa and gains more time and bonus sprint The Tour de France winner broke away with Landa on the late La Asturiana climb and then they dived down the descent together enough to survive until the finish in Santurtzi Vingegaard lead Landa into the final corner and then sprinted to the line to win the stage There were no gifts to his Basque breakaway companion as Vingegaard wanted to win and take maximum bonus seconds Matteo Sobrero (Jayco-Alula) brought home the chase group eventually finishing just two seconds down but Vingegaard extended his overall lead to 12 seconds on Landa and 31 seconds on David Gaudu (Groupama-FDJ) people were attacking and so I decided to try myself Mikel Landa came with me and then we worked together They came close in the end but I was still able to win the sprint Vingegaard appears in control of the Basque stage race but was still cautious about his overall chance of victory We would have liked to have the 30-second lead we had at one point but that's bike racing," he explained of the GC fight I took three other bonus seconds during the stage and they could be valuable in the end." The early part of the stage headed out of the coastal town of Santurtzi near Bilbao and inland through the hills of the Basque Country with the riders averaging nearly 50 km/h in the first hour The peloton finally let a break the day form after 40km when Harm Vanhoucke (Team DSM) Alan Jousseaume (TotalEnergies) and mountains classification leader Jon Barrenetxea (Caja Rural-Seguros RGA) got away Barrenetxea was interested in scoring points on the series of third category climbs that filled the stage profile The peloton was happy to let him and his comrades go clear and at one point the gap rose to 6:35 making Vanhoucke the virtual leader on the road Ineos Grenadiers were clearly on the hunt for a stage win with Jayco-AIUIa also keen to see if they could secure a result On the long ride back from the hills of the southern Basque Country towards the coast the five rider's lead began to plummet as the terrain hurt Barrenetxea grabbed another few points on a last third category climb and on the first time through the finish area at Santurtzi Tesfatsion grabbed some points But it was clear the break was doomed as Jayco-Alula also worked hard on the front to set-up Simon Yates A crash saw several go down with 40 km to go and soon after Jumbo-Visma confirmed that Rohan Dennis had abandoned just in time for the overall contenders to contest an intermediate sprint Ion Izagirre (Cofidis) kicked hard but Vingegaard was aggressive too and managed to beat the Basque rider to the line with EF Education-EasyPost going on the front on the steepest early gradients Soon after Rigoberto Uran tried an attack and then Richard Carapaz tried a dig Vingegaard was not happy and responded and then attacked himself to draw out his rivals with five kilometres to climb and 20 km to race Only Mikel Landa (Bahrain Victorious) was able to go with him as everyone else formed a desperate chase group Brandon McNulty (UAE Team Emirates) and Mattias Skjelmose (Trek-Segafredo) were there with others joining on the descent helter-skelter descent proved as important as the climb but Vingegaard and Landa took turns on the front took some risks and maintained a gap of 25 seconds on the hairpins down to Santurtzi They worked together on the flat ride to the finish to stay away with no apparent deal on who would win the stage The chasers closed the gap to a handful of seconds and could see Vingegaard and Landa but they couldn't catch them Vingegaard carefully pinned Landa close to the barriers as he opened his sprint and so won by a bike length Results powered by FirstCycling Stephen FarrandSocial Links NavigationHead of NewsStephen is one of the most experienced member of the Cyclingnews team having reported on professional cycling since 1994 He has been Head of News at Cyclingnews since 2022 before which he held the position of European editor since 2012 and previously worked for Reuters View the discussion thread.

Stage 4 of the 2023 Itzulia Basque Country starts and finishes in the town of Santurtzi after 175.7  kilometres of racing - A typically hilly course culminates with an ascent of the second category La Asturiana climb and a fast drop down to the finish five riders had a lead of over six minutes on the peloton: Harm Vanhoucke (DSM) Alan Jousseaume (Total Energies) and Jon Barrenetxea (Caja Rural-Seguros RGA) But the break were then caught before the final climb of La Asturiana - Jonas Vingegaard (Jumbo-Visma) and Mikel Landa (Bahrain Victorious) went on the attack on La Asturiana with Vingegaard claiming the stage win and boosting his lead overall Hello and welcome to our live coverage of stage 4 of the 2023 Itzulia Basque Country Racing will get underway in about 10 minutes time on this 175.5 kilometre stage starting and finishing in Santurtzi a dormitory town for the nearby city of Bilbao Jonas Vingegaard (Jumbo-Visma) is in the lead and the probably definitive ascent of La Asturiana and final drop down back to Santurtzi The riders are now rolling through the neutralized section The weather is a balmy 18 degrees and sunny No sign of the rain that so often affects this race Here's the results from Wednesday's stage and the overall rankings as they currently stand In the other rankings we have Alex Aranburu (Movistar) in the points lead Jon Barrenetxea (Caja Rural-Seguros RGA) heads the mountains classification Mattias Skjelmose (Trek-Segafredo) is currently ranked Best Young Rider and Movistar are on top of the teams ranking.  And racing is now underway for stage 4 of the 2023 Itzulia Basque Country The 2021 stage won by Aranburu also concluded with an ascent of La Asturiana and drop back down to the Bilbao coastline If a lot of people are following Aranburu's wheel on the final climb Reports of two non-starters but to be confirmed: Cristian Scaroni (Astana Qazaqstan) and Jesus Ezquerra (Burgos-BH) including mountains leader Jon Barrenetxea (Caja Rural-Seguros RGA) An 50 kmh average speed for the first 14 kilometres: if anybody wanted to pick up some extra race food from the teamcar or drop off some kit in the fast-rising temperatures Unlike Wednesday's early run along the Basque coast today the peloton's heading south-west and inland through the hills that line three sides of the coastal city of Bilbao and its industrial hinterland Three riders have a small gap:  Joel Nicolau (Caja Rural-Seguros RGA) Joan Bou (Euskaltel-Euskadi) and Pierre Latour (TotalEnergies) was already in the break of the day on Wednesday No dice: despite Andrey Amador (EF Education-EasyPost) Robert Stannard (Alpecin-Deceuninck) and another stage 3 breakaway Nicolas Prodhomme (AG2R Citroen) joining the three ahead Some words from race leader Jonas Vingegaard at the start today: "I'm excited to be in yellow very happy about yesterday but today's another day it's a hard race and you have to do that." Another small breakaway manages to get a gap of around 20 seconds Alan Jousseaume (Total Energies) and for a second time today And the five breakaways are now at the foot of the first climb of the day And here's a shot of the riders in the neutralized section of today's start/finish town of Santurtzi That sunny weather we mentioned before was no lie And here's a picture of Mikel Landa (Bahrain Victorious) at today's start Landa placed second behind Jonas Vingegaard on the stage 3 finish and is currently the best placed of Vingegaard's rivals Jon Barrenetxea (Caja Rural-Seguros RGA) claims top points on the summit of the Malkuartu to further buttress his lead in the mountains ranking And although Caicedo apparently struggled on that 3rd cat climb he managed to get back into the break of five as they come off the Malkuartu and so we have five riders ahead: Caicedo Alan Jousseaume (Total Energies) and KoM leader Jon Barrenetxea (Caja Rural-Seguros RGA) The bunch has let these five go and we have our break of the day: 1:35 the gap Unconfirmed reports of a third non-starter today Netherlands rider Oscar Riesebeek (Alpecin-Deceuninck).  The advantage for our five men out in front is soaring at a rate of knots: 2:40 the current gap And the gap continues to rise for the five breakaways Jumbo-Visma and Bahrain Victorious pick up the pace in the bunch The race has now reached its most southerly point of a long loop out and back from the start/finish town of Santurtzi and having passed by the foot of the Orduna pass one of the most famous in the Basque Country (though not climbed this year) and ridden west for a few kilometres the peloton is heading back north towards the coast again the biggest margin the five leaders have had so far And here is an image of the day's breakaway Less than 40 seconds higher and Harm Vanhoucke (DSM) the best placed of the quintet on GC by far 6:22 behind yellow jersey Jonas Vingegaard (Jumbo-Visma) will be race leader on the road We're at the foot of the second of the four classified climbs of the day: the Santa Coloma a two kilometre third cat The gap for the five riders ahead is dropping a little: 5:30 Jon Barrenetxea (Caja Rural-Seguros RGA) adds another three points to his KoM classification lead at the top of the Santa Coloma Second across the summit was Alan Jousseaume (Total Energies) and third Harm Vanhoucke (DSM) For those seeking more information on Itzulia Basque Country stage 4 breakaway Natnael Tesfatsion Cyclingnews interviewed the Eritrean climber back in December.  Meet Natnael Tesfatsion, Trek-Segafredo's new Eritrean climber Here's a photo of race leader Jonas Vingegaard during today's stage The gap for the five ahead has increased to 6:33 Harm Vanhoucke (DSM) is now race leader on the road We're getting to the point where you have to wonder if the break will go all the way A gap of over six minutes with 80 kilometres left is not a small one and for Jumbo-Visma and race leader Jonas Vingegaard the big advantage is that the break will soak up all the time bonuses from the intermediate sprints and the finish With 29 riders at a minute or less on GC behind Vingegaard Ten kilometres further on and the gap is sticking at 6:35 The third of our trio of third category climbs is fast approaching: the Bezi: 3.8km at 6 percent Luke Plapp (Ineos Grenadiers) leads the string in the pack The effort by Ineos Grenadiers is having an effect and the gap has shrunk to 5:30 Vanhoucke's spell as race leader on the road is over The top of the Bezi is considerably easier than its lower slopes (which weren't overly hard either) and there are no attacks as Barrenetxea rolls through the top and snaps up another three points for the mountains classification he'll  be in the lead by the end of the stage for a fourth straight day They have five riders on the front of the bunch and the gap is now down to 4:35 smooth descent off the Bezi with sweeping corners Key points for the remainder of the stage are two intermediate sprints the first at Santurtzi (km 131.4) and the next at Larigada (km 148.7) Then we've got the main feature of the day the second category La Asturiana (km160.9): 7.4km at 6.5 percent The five race leaders reach the bottom of the long descent off the Bezi and almost immediately the road begins to rise again More teams coming to the fore in the bunch as well as the hunt for the five ahead is truly on: Astana Qazaqstan Bahrain Victorious and Groupama-FDJ are all present in numbers The break have 3:53 on the bunch as the main peloton sweeps through and out of the town of Muskiz Felix Grosschartner (UAE Team Emirates) is one of the heavier fallers  Thibaut Guernalec (Arkea-Samsic) and Gijs Leemreize (Jumbo-Visma) also reported to have fallen in that crash The gap is now 3:00 and dropping for the five riders ahead: Harm Vanhoucke (DSM) The five leaders are in the finish town of Santurtzi passing through the finish area before tackling the last loop of the day Jayco-AIUIa have taken over from Ineos Grenadiers on a slight rise out of Santurtzi and back into the hills Ineos Grenadiers come back to support Jayco-AIUIa again and the gap drops to under two minutes At this rate the break will be lucky to make it to the foot of La Asturiana ahead Grosschartner is back up and running after that crash but he's got a lot of rips in his kit and some road grime as well.  Stage 1 winner Ethan Hayter puts his shoulder to the wheel for Ineos Grenadiers on the front of the bunch Tesfatsion took the three seconds and maximum points in the intermediate sprint at Santurtzi with Jousseaume and Barrenetxea in second and third The race has reached the coast again and the gap is down to 1:07 on the approach to the second intermediate sprint Jumbo-Visma's Twitter account says that Rohan Dennis has abandoned the race 🇪🇸 #Itzulia2023Unfortunately, Rohan Dennis has left the race due to a crash. ☹️ He will undergo some examinations and we will provide an update on his condition as soon as possible. 🙏April 6, 2023 The gap for the five is down to 18 seconds Luke Plapp (ineos Grenadiers) drives hard and the bunch can see the break ahead on a short climb Barrenetxea has lost contact with the break Caicedo has also gone from the break as they approach the hot spot sprint of the day The break is back and the GC leaders are going for the sprint we're now approaching the final climb of the day Jayco-AIUIa are on the front along with Arkea-Samsic speeding through a town towards the foot of the climb Esteban Chaves (EF Education-EasyPost) is looking very good on the front of the pack Chaves teammate Richard Carapaz is right behind him in second spot but relatively well-surfaced as they head steadily upwards through some dense woodland More EF Education-EasyPost riders are now leading the string After a long turn by former Vuelta a España leader Odd Christian Elking EF teammate RIgoberto Urán moves to the head.  Vingegaard looks back and sees Mikel Landa (Bahrain Victorious) trying to surge across The top two riders on GC are leading the race Landa and Vingegaard are opening up a gap and working together on La Asturiana The Dane has eight seconds advantage on Landa on GC after snatching a three second time bonus earlier on today Enric Mas (Movistar) is trying to close the gap on Vingegaard and Landa but it looks like he's got a fight on his hands.  Vingegaard and Landa  have a gap of around 200 metres as the road narrows a little and eases slightly after the steepest early sections Five riders in a chase group behind Landa and Vingegaard: Sergio Higuita (Bora-Hansgrohe) Brandon McNulty (UAE Team Emirates) and Mattias Skjelmose (Trek-Segafredo) More riders are joining them from behind.  Two kilometres from the summit and the two stage (and GC) leaders have 30 seconds on a group of some 20 riders McNulty and Skjelmose try to counterattack with James Knox (Soudal-QuickStep) Vingegaard is doing most of the work ahead now sweep along the notably easier gradient towards the wooded summit of La Asturiana and across the summit with 25 seconds advantage.  Landa comes through on the early part of the descent but thankfully dry and not overly twisty so far A flick of the elbow from Vingegaard and Landa comes through on the fast 30 second gap for the two ahead as they pass through a seriously technical section in a small town Thankfully the leaders are back onto a broader road and they've got a short climb ahead before the final drop down into Santurtzi Knox is driving hard behind now as he tries to whip the pursuit into some kind of organised chase But so far the gap is holding at around 30 seconds and Landa leads Vingegaard through one of many hairpins Mattia Cattaneo and his Soudal-QuickStep teammate Knox are leading a group of around 20 chasers But for now it's advantage Vingegaard and Landa Landa and Vingegaard are still speeding down the descent into Santurtzi while behind the pursuit is looking a fraction more committed Landa's back wheel wobbled a bit on a tricky corner The two have a gap of 25 seconds as they hit Santurtzi Much flatter terrain now and even a slight kick-up but Landa and Vingegaard are still collaborating smoothly but too slowly for the two to be caught for now And the gap drops to 12 seconds as they power through Santurtzi Vingegaard leads Landa towards the final kilometre sign it's going to be a two-up sprint for the stage The two are looking back and playing cat and mouse But the gap is big enough for now to stay away Vingegaard leads out the sprint and gets the win by a tiny margin over Landa The chasing group is only a few metres behind Jonas Vingegaard wins stage 4 of the 2023 Itzulia Basque Country who's strengthened his overall lead over the Basque as well Vingegaard was challenged by Landa all the way to the line but he held off Landa by enough for the stage win by a bike length Mauro Schmid (Soudal-QuickStep) claimed third on the stage two seconds back behind Landa and Vingegaard That's his second stage podium finish in Itzulia after taking second on the opening day behind Ethan Hayter (Ineos Grenadiers) Vingegaard has now more than doubled his lead on Landa and has a 12 second advantage on his closest rival the 2023 Itzulia Basque Country looks to be Vingegaard's to lose now this is the Itzulia Basque Country and it is famous for remaining on a knife-edge right up until the last minute as Vingegaard  pointed out before the stage He's rarely one to beat around the bush and on this occasion he certainly doesn't: "I tried to stay coldblooded about it all but then I was just lacking a little bit in the finale." Discussing the climb when Vingegaard attacked "I knew I had to get on Vingegaard's wheel when he went and then it was basically all I could do to hold onto him." And here's a photo of our two men of the moment on the decisive La Asturiana climb.. And here's a photo of Vingegaard crossing the line to claim his second stage of the 2023 race Vingegaard has ousted Alex Aranburu (Movistar) to move atop of the points classification Jon Barrenetxea (Caja Rural-Seguros RGA) remains atop the mountains ranking and Mattias Skjelmose (Trek-Segafredo) is likewise still ahead in the Best Young Rider competition Soudal-QuickStep have taken over from Movistar as Best Team of the race stage 5 of the 2020 Itzulia Basque Country on Friday is another circuit starting and finishing in the town of Amorebieta-Etxano it’s got a lumpy profile with several second and third categories but the key moment of the stage will likely be the three short the last peaking out with some five kilometres to go and preceding a fast drop down to the finish For

challenging week in the hills from Vitoria-Gasteiz to Eibar in 2023 the region's capital Vitoria-Gasteiz will host the race's Grand Depart for the first time kicking off the 165.4km opener to Labastida to the south.  the first of them is the most sprinter-friendly of the lot though even here there's an uphill run to the line it's a (relatively) gentle introduction to six days of hard and hilly racing measuring in at 193.8km with five climbs along the way from Viana to Leitza in the east of the region and Saldas (second) lie on the road prior to a second ascent of Arkiskil from the east (11.km at 3.2%) and a 5km descent into Leitza – perfect for late attacks The third stage of the race from Errenteria to Vilabona straddles the Gipuzkoa coast and circles around Donostia before heading south steep climbs lining the latter half of the 153.9km stage With a cluster of third-category classified climbs including Meagas  and a steep uphill finish (with a final kilometre at 9.4%) Santurtzi hosts the start and finish of stage 4 with a big looping route to the south of the city taking in yet more hills along the 175.7km stage and Bezi precede the finale at the second-category La Asturiana (7.4km at 6.5%) The race heads east again for the penultimate stage starting and finishing in Amorebieta and four more categorized hills to add to the list Weary riders will battle over 165.9km of road with barely a flat kilometre all day Even if the final day of the race around Eibar is the shortest at 137.8km featuring three first-category climbs among seven classified ascents Riders will start the day with the third-category Elkorrieta before moving on to Azurki (5.1km at 7.4%) and Gorla (9.6km at 5.7%) The mid-stage Krabelin (5km at 9.6%) is the toughest climb of the race while the third-cat Trabakua also averages 7.1% 26km from the line is the last first-category test of the day though a final climb of Urkaregi (5km at 4.8%) presents a final challenge 12km out with an uphill drag to the finish in the town of Eibar rounding out the race Dani has reported from the world's top races She has interviewed many of the sport's biggest stars and her favourite races are the Giro d'Italia In the Iberian peninsula there are around 1,400 documented spider species Only three of them are capable of inflicting serious clinical conditions with their bite It is very rare for the two most venomous types to come into contact with humans These are the European black widow and the Iberian black widow it's a different situation with the third species popularly known as the violin spider or Mediterranean recluse spider The enzymes in its venom are capable of causing necrosis (tissue death) in the area of the bite it's essential that the affected person receives medical attention a bite from one of these spiders has been reported there were three separate bites on the same person in their home in Santurtzi According to a scientific article published this month in the journal of the Spanish Society of Environmental Health (SESA) the events took place between May and September 2023 noticed that he had been bitten by an insect on the inside of his left forearm on 17 May of last year Four days later he went to his GP with pain and pus accumulation in the area The abscess reached a diameter of two centimetres the man needed to go to the hospital twice as the condition did not improve with antibiotics both in the primary care consultation and in the emergency department he was diagnosed with a compatible cutaneous necrotic syndrome due to a bite from the Mediterranean recluse spider as stated in the scientific article signed by Mikel Alexander González the patient searched among the pots on his balcony and after spraying the plants with insecticide claimed that two spiders emerged whose description matched that of this species González stresses that it is very unusual for spiders to bite He says that on most occasions the bites that people attribute to these arachnids have been caused by other insects not least because they don't feed on blood it is usually by accident and the bite is only dangerous in very few cases," explains the expert their bites often go unnoticed and the person affected has no symptoms or only a slight itch But there are people who suffer from a characteristic clinical condition called loxoscelism 12 accredited cases of poisoning caused by the violin spider have been reported in Spain The article signed by González reports four more including the case of the man from the Basque Country despite the widespread presence of this spider supports the experts' view that "it is not an aggressive species" and they insist that its bite is accidental long-legged and measures up to four centimetres Another of its characteristics is that instead of 8 eyes It is called a violin because of the way it looks when viewed from above Although it is thought to be African in origin it has invasive tendencies and
