Despite clambering out of a ravine to ride up the final climb on stage 6, Oscar Onley has abandoned the Tour Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, deciding not to start stage 7 as he heads for medical checks.
The Netcompany-Ineos rider, third overall at the start of the day, was not accounted for on Friday's final climb and, after Matteo Jorgenson had said he'd seen the Scot crash over the edge of the road, there was relief as he finished the stage, albeit almost half an hour down.
