RadioShack's Chris Horner is diagnosed with blood clot, after Tour fall

Chris Horner is adding to his, already long, list of injuries, after being diagnosed with a blood clot in his lung,

Horner was one of a series of riders who had to pull out of the tour, after suffering heavy crashes. The American hit the deck on stage seven; he got back on his bike and continued to the end, despite suffering from severe concussion, a fractured rib, a broken nose and injuries to his leg. By the time he got to the finish line, he barely knew who or where he was.

He has since returned to Colorado and had begun training, for the Tour of Utah, but started complaining of pains in his side. Horner went to hospital and was diagnosed with a blood clot; he will begin blood thinning treatment, to remove the clot.

Alberto Contador

Contador struggled to stay on his bike on several occasions, during the first week, and it seemed that combined with his Giro exploits was a bit too much. He was caught up in the huge crash, on stage one and lost over a minute and was later, allegedly, pushed over by Vladimir Karpets. He did look like he might be catching on the main contenders, but bonking on the Galibier spelled the end for the 2010 champion. He did earn respect of fan, especially after thumping a rude spectator, but he will have to look at his calendar hard next year, if he hopes to win another tour.
