Cycling: Manx riders represent in Tour de France Femmes 

Competition did not go without incident for Storrie

Manx cyclists Lizzie Holden and Becky Storrie completed the 2024 Tour de France Femmes yesterday (18 August).

Storrie, of Team dsm-firmenich PostNL, had to abandon the Tour on the seventh stage of the event due to a broken collarbone.

It's now the third time the rider has suffered the same injury. 

This meant the 25-year-old could not compete in stage eight of the Tour either and ultimately led to Storrie finishing in the standings with a 'did not finish'. 

Holden, for UAE Team ADQ, finished 78th in the general classification however the 26-year-old managed a best finish of 28 in the third stage of the competition in Rotterdam.
