Boeckmans abandoned, he has an allergic reaction on some medication. Not very lucky in WT races this year. Crash in M-S, sick just before Flanders and Roubaix and now again a crash.

isn't it a live tracker??IamIronMan said:Not necessarily related to this stage, but yesterday watching the TTT and on other times I've watched this and other races lately, I have noticed some weird short bar or object sticking out from underneath the saddle of some riders' bikes. It looks to be maybe 4-5 inches long and sticks out backward from underneath the saddle. Does anyone know what those are?
