Wiggins warns of further Tour sabotage
Wiggins, reigning champion Cadel Evans (BMC Racing) as well as Ireland’s Nicolas Roche (Ag2r La Mondiale) were just some of the riders caught up in the carnage on the climb of Mur de Peguere on the 191-kilometre route from Limoux to Foix.
Jean-Francois Pescheux, competitions director of Tour organisers Amaury Sports Organisation, confirmed around 30 riders suffered punctures on the climb, with one — Robert Kiserlovski (Astana), crashing and abandoning following a suspected broken collarbone.
