After the disappointment of crashing and losing the yellow just 24 hours ago, Demi Vollering (SD Worx-Protime) bounced back with a strong showing on stage 6 of the Tour de France Femmes, marking key moves and not losing any time en route to Morteau with her legs feeling back to normal.
Vollering went down in a mass crash after the exit of a roundabout on stage 5 and lost 1:53 to new race leader Kasia Niewiadoma (Canyon-SRAM), with the team later confirming that while she had sustained “minor bruising and superficial abrasions to her lower back and buttock”, she would likely start the sixth stage.
