Road Runner Posted July 6, 2015 Share #1 Posted July 6, 2015 Okay, maybe it was the right thing to do, but I have never seen the race stopped before just because of a couple crashes. I always thought that was just part of racing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parr8hed Posted July 6, 2015 Share #3 Posted July 6, 2015 Lotta riders involved. I am betting that since the Yellow Jersey was involved that helped in the decision making process. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Posted July 6, 2015 Share #5 Posted July 6, 2015 Per the folks at Podium Cafe, all the ambulances were busy and they couldn't race without the medical support. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If only Travis was there with his RV, he and G Man could have painted a red cross on the side and gotten in on the action. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Posted July 6, 2015 Share #8 Posted July 6, 2015 Per the head of the AIGCP, in addition to not having ambulances, all the doctors were tied up with the injured and there were no doctors available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrentonMakes Posted July 6, 2015 Share #9 Posted July 6, 2015 I just saw a video clip of that crash. Given how fast the peloton was moving that's probably as bad a crash as I've seen in a bike race. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smudge ★ Posted July 6, 2015 Share #13 Posted July 6, 2015 Cancellara's out with two fractured vertebrae. Nooooooo!!!! I saw him stop and reach for his back. I couldn't watch any longer; I had to go to work. Thanks for update as bad as it is. Poor guy. ACK! I have to change my fantasy league roster!
