    Any crash out is frustrating but even more so when it is so innocuous

    Absolute nothing crash with no-one else getting a scratch.

    He slides better at 70 kph

    I guess this year’s documentary can stay on Netflix and not go to Disney+ then. Looks genuinely devastated, hope the cameras leave him alone now though.

    Can't there be some kind of airbag shoulder Jersey? The collarbone is such a common injury.

    I wonder if he’ll ride the ToB has a final farewell? Would be good to get out on the roadside on the final stage to see him off.

    Absolutely gutted. Been out cycling and just switched on to see Cav on the deck. Seemed to be a crash out of nothing? Desperately unlucky 😪

    Sport is brutal sometimes. That'll probably be retirement as of today. As much as we'd all love one more year!

    According to PCS today is Pidcock's 50th GT stage start. Only seems like he's been around for 1 minute.
