Losing Touch CdD25-9
Ben Healy (EF Education-EasyPost) had been spending much of the day hanging around the back of the peloton. Once they got to the three kilometers to go mark (the point where one will get the same time as the group you were with should you have a mechanical or a crash) he let the peloton go. He had been testing his front wheel's inflation, so perhaps it was a mechanical and not just bad legs that had him dropping off rather quickly. I haven't read any post-race articles to see if he was sick as well. He was part of the late action yesterday, so I doubt it is his legs.
