That looks rather sore

They're having a little protest. From the letour site ...

On a slow motion
12:49
The riders have stopped for a little while and proceed on a slow motion to request a discussion between all stakeholders, UCI, organizers, teams and riders about safety.

I hope no one has a clipless moment in the go-slow and they all go down like dominoes. I have seen that (admittedly not in a professional race)

There's was only the Haig crash on the bend that was preventable really....the rest weren't really UCIs fault.What you gonna do with the team car shouting at you to get into he front ! It's the Tour and high anxiety/jumpy first week.
Hopefully it'll calm down....don't hold your breath though 😁

They're over half way and I don't think anyone has fallen off yet. Good going lads. Keep it up.

 

[GuyBoden]

He won't win the sprint, but it would be nice to see Cav have a go today.

 

[Dogtrousers]

How did he do that?


Cavendish has lost his saddle
15:02
Mark Cavendish got a new bike because he lost his saddle! He's making his way back to the pack along with riders who had stopped to answerthe call of the nature, including yellow jersey holder Matnieu van der Poel.

 

[Poacher]

Had quite an effect - Cav just won the intermediate sprint!

 

[fossyant]

It's going to be close.

He won't win the sprint, but it would be nice to see Cav have a go today.
