Bad Luck TDU17-19
With two riders still up the road, Will Clarke (Cannondale Drapac) was one of the three riders to jump free of the peloton in hopes of bridging across to the leaders The other two were Lars Bak (Lotto Soudal) and Michael Valgren (Astana) Just as the trio were opening up a thirty second gap on the peloton Clarke had the misfortune of getting a rear flat tire The neutral service vehicles gave him a quick change but the time lost was too much to continue to stay off of the front He could take some solace in knowing that Bak nor Valgren made it up to the leaders so his ill fortune did not take him out of a chance to win the stage into Campbelltown
