That's Healy's classics season finished with a fracture at Itzulia. No show for Pidders at fizzy beer either.

Pidders is doing Tour of the Alps then Liege

He's scrapped the Ardennes build-up races and is doing Tour of the Alps instead, though he's still down to ride LBL. Don't know what the reasoning is.

Reads like he's looking to salvage something from his Ardennes season but needs a block of racing to rehabilitate. Sounds a bit desperate but needs must.

But what's up with him? He was going really well earlier in the season. Have I missed something?

Edit: just read and remembered he crashed at Catalunya

Wide open for Seixas one would think

Also probably saw Jorgensen sat at the side of the road with a broken collarbone and didn't want the risk
