As the stress levels in the peloton rise towards the finale, an unexpected traffic island has caused a nasty crash in the bunch.
Worst affected of those involved looked to be Israel - Premier Tech's Riley Pickrell who was spotted with blood pouring from a cut on his head in the aftermath. Also involved were the likes of Giovanni Lonardi, Davide Piganzoli and Alan Riou with Daniel Martinez also possibly slowed up by the crash but seemingly not hitting the deck.

- love tom. smart, interesting guy. and he’s dead right about mathieu, i think. if van der poel had gotten stuck on a team like ineos or visma or soudal, it would have radically shortened his career. fortunately he was smart enough to prioritize freedom with alpecin over the giant contract he could have gotten years earlier with a bigger team. remember that alpecin was just a continental team when mvdp keep signing contract extensions with them for short money. it’s certainly all worked out over time though. maximum freedom — probably the most in the entire peloton — and huge deals now with both alpecin and canyon. tom was such a GREAT talent i wish his career had played out the same way.OCexile22-04-2025
