It was a nervous wait at the EF Education-Oatly team bus at the end of stage 2 of the Tour de France Femmes avec Zwift in Quimper as out on the road, long after the winner had been decided, Kristen Faulkner was battling against the time limit. A crash made life even more difficult for the US rider, who was already persevering despite illness.
She made it, finishing 24:16 down from stage winner Mavi García (Liv AlUla Jayco) as the last rider over the line just inside the time cut, determined to fight on another day.
