Critérium du Dauphiné 2019 **Spoilers**

[Levo-Lon]

He's a very fit dedicated athlete who has taken a big hit.
I'll give him 3 months before he's back on the bike training.

These guys ate in a league most of us can only dream of.

An OPEN fracture though? That's the worst. The broken bone pokes through the skin opening you to deep bone infection.

It's going to be close for the breakaway...

 

[Dogtrousers]

How’s the bike?

Weirdly enough, there really is info on that.

Caught !

I started a thread for Froome ?

 

[Adam4868]

Van Aert again !

Great finish. It was never one for the pure sprinters, looking at the little uphills and sharp turns at the end. I thought EBH and Gilbert had stolen it for a while, but WVA can do anything, it seems. The only guy who's better than him all-round is probably MVdP but he's off winning MTB races...

BOO HOO HANI oh dear , how sad ….never mind

One of those riders whose head just isn't right half the time...

Absolutely, terrible injury but he will be like a moto gp rider and get almost instant top specialist care.

But having had a few serious fractured bones its the swelling and healing time that often causes the most pain.

Good luck to him, all that titanium will still add weight to one side so he may find corners more interesting

I would say "most" of the time

 

[PK99]

He's lucky. If he'd been just an ordinary bike rider out on his own with no back up team it could've been fatal as he could've been lead there without anyone knowing. Why take your hands off the bars to blow your nose? Just fire snot rockets out with one finger pressing a nostril and keeping one hand on the bars. Handkerchiefs are not necessary in cycling.

Later reports are in fact saying "took a hand off"

The only option.
