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.

- So far in my life I've broken my left arm, my right arm, my left wrist, my left leg, three collar bones, broken my neck, broken my back, crushed my pelvis, lost a rib, hurt my left kidney and now I broken the same foot twice. Getting old sucks, I still think I'm twenty lolawp25-01-2025

- I don’t think you’ll find ANY ageing cycling enthusiast who hasn’t gone through this kind of “torture” at least once. As long as it’s not permanent you get over it. Get better safely, I may miss this season but am pretty happy my torn meniscus has healed itself (not a given closing in on 60) well enough to contemplate more racing next year. 2025 will be about recovery and testing but with a new child and heavy renovations I’m looking at it as the luck hidden in bad luck :-)Mistermaumau25-01-2025

- I can imagine being super fit and having to wait a while, I broke my foot two weeks ago. It sucks, I hope Remco has another great year and can improve in the Tour. Even if he's still on the third step, maybe the gap won't be so wide.awp25-01-2025
