I feel for Thomas. It must be said though, he seems to fall more than most. Just really crummy to see

Nope, and no team mates coming back to assist....

Rowe just come back.

possibly just bruised the end of the shoulder. Doubt he'll be holding the bars as strongly if the clavicle is broken

what is this commentator on about.

"the previous winner..."

"the race favourite..."

Smoking too much ethylene?

Again... "Gerraint Thomas is the favourite for the race". 

He's not even the favorite in his team ????‍♂️

swapfiets?

so literrally, "bike exchange"

It's a bicycle rental service - growing really fast over here. Their "trademark" is a blue front tyre.

You rent the bike and if anything goes wrong they come and fix it (or swap it out).

Robert Gesink of TJV has abandoned

 

Ag tog.

I know crashes are a part of racing, but that one just sucks. Nobody wants to have Gee and TJV weakened like this. We want a solid fight from the full GC teams.

Strange side note: Every time we see a river its really bare-bones low. (Even though half the tour has been in the rain so far...)

Gee looks super uncomfortable, but he can stand up on the bike, so his collar bone / shoulder can't be broken  (that's my expert medical opinion)

Ineos also sending more people back makes me think he's decided he's not too damaged.

A bit long in the teeth but still, not good for him, or my GC man
