The riders that went down included American Neilson Powless, Latvia's Toms Skujins, Denmark's Caspar Pedersen and Robert Gesink of the Netherlands. A large group of over 50 riders were heading along a straightaway at about 55 kph when a couple of bikes bumped wheels, setting off a chain reaction that led to several riders being knocked over.
