Michael Rogers
Alberto, no apologies. You’ve done us proud…
Ride Cycling News, Rob Arnold, 15 July 2014
Posted by: Bitossi
With about 94km to go in the 10th stage of the 101st Tour de France, the two-time champion, Alberto Contador landed with a thud on the ground. He would later discover that his tibia was broken in the incident but that didn’t mean he’d surrender and quit the race immediately. As one of the favourites for the overall title, he got himself bandaged up, switched shoes and got back on the bike.
Eighteen kilometres later, the Spaniard would put his arm around his Australian team-mate, Mick Rogers, and apologise. “‘Sorry,” he said, “I can’t keep going.” And with that, Contador unclipped from his pedals, stepped off his bike and quit the Tour de France. His race was over.
