Colombian rider Soler out of Tour de France

CHOLET – Colombia’s Mauricio Soler, who won the “King of the Mountains” title last year was forced to pull out of the Tour de France yesterday because of an injured wrist.

Soler, who rides for the British-registered Barloworld team, fractured a bone in his left wrist in a crash on the chaotic 197.5km first stage of the tour on Saturday. He managed to complete the following three stages but was languishing down in 176th place nearly 18 minutes behind tour leader Stefan Schumacher on Wednesday when he decided to call it a day shortly after the start of the fifth stage.Nampa-AFPHe managed to complete the following three stages but was languishing down in 176th place nearly 18 minutes behind tour leader Stefan Schumacher on Wednesday when he decided to call it a day shortly after the start of the fifth stage.Nampa-AFP
