Is a road cyclist out of the race if he/she rips their kit?

Is a road cyclist out of the race if he/she rips their kit?

Racing in a road cycling competition can be a thrilling experience. But what happens when a cyclist rips their kit during the race? Is their race over? Fortunately, the answer is no. While it may be difficult to continue with a ripped kit, a determined cyclist can still compete in the race. With a few modifications, the cyclist can still finish the race and potentially place highly. By using safety pins, tape, and other materials, the cyclist can create a makeshift kit that will hold up for the remainder of the race. With a little creativity and determination, a ripped kit does not have to mean the end of a road cyclist's race.
