Omega
Pharma-QuickStep directeur sportif Rolf
Aldag described his team as a "body without a head" after

dislocated AC joint he suffered in his stage 1 crash. (cyclingnews.com)
July 6, 2014 “He
was obviously pretty desperate, being a British rider and having the
first stages in the UK. I could see he was desperately trying to win
and that is probably why he was pretty aggressive there in the final.
But like I said, he apologized to me last night for his move in the
final. I think everyone made their opinions quickly about how the crash
happened and why.” (cyclingtips.com.au)

another shoulder scan and possibly surgery Monday after crashing in the

and billed as one for the sprinters, with 6 20km laps. (podiumcafe.com)

solo attack. (cyclingweekly.co.uk)

the opening road stage of the Giro or any major tour is one for the
sprinters. Usually you’ll have a predominantly flat day, perhaps with a
small climb in there somewhere to award the mountains classification.
This year however, the race organisers decided that they wanted to
create a GC shake up from the get-go." (cyclingtips.com.au)
July 6, 2014 American
Vuelta winner Chris

It’s time for the biggest women’s stage race of the year, the Giro
Rosa, running from 4th to 13th July, the only women’s race that the UCI
allow to run for ten days – and this year it’s extra special, as it’s
the 25th iteration of the women’s Giro. (prowomenscycling.com)
July 6, 2014 July 5, 2014 | July 6, 2014 The

always likely to split the peloton asunder, but no one predicted the
amount of damage they inflicted, largely thanks to the fiercely

Jelte Slagter reduced the front group to just 15 members,
while shielding his leader Andrew
Talansky at the same time. (cyclingnews.com)

am looking for PARTICIPANTS to be in a Research Study that I am
conducting, for my Master's thesis in Sport Psychology. My thesis is on

and what it takes to get them back on the bike after they have
recovered." (dougreport.com)
