Rider after rider hits the deck in a huge wipe-out

30 women crash at the Tour de France Femmes

A massive crash at the Tour de France Femmes brought the race to a screeching halt with 30 cyclists involved in the pile-up. Canadian Magdeleine Vallieres was among the riders who who went down. Emma Norsgaard had to withdraw and 2017 world champion Chantal van den Broeck-Blaak would wear  a towel around her bleeding right elbow before the medical car got to treat her.

Although most of the riders would get back up, it would take several kilometers for them to get back to the pack.

Lorena Wiebes would win the chaotic fifth stage, her second of the Tour.
