Not a pleasant experience, knowing that climbs like the Aspin and Tourmalet were still ahead. Hoole was therefore dropped relatively early by his own standards.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, along with his teammates and compatriots Kooij and Cees Bol, Hoole did manage to reach the finish line, more than 43 minutes behind stage winner Tadej Pogacar. Luckily for Hoole, the next two days on the schedule are relatively flat, during which he should be able to recover a bit more than he would after a grueling mountain stage of the Tour de France.<\/p>\n<p>Video: Daan Hoole vomits on his bike in the Tour de FranceAuthor: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.idlprocycling.com\/author\/DavidBHobbs\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">David Bavin-Hobbs<\/a> &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/dashboard.idlprocycling.com\/admin\/article\/85195\/d.bavinhobbs@idlprocycling.com\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">[email\u00a0protected]<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A bad day to have a bad day.
