Gadret sidelined with knee injury

AG2R La Mondiale professional John Gadret was forced to abandon the Tour of California's third stage due to tendonitis in his left knee and returned to France for further tests.

Examinations have since revealed a cyst and inflammation in the right meniscus which required surgery. Gadret has undergone an operation to remove the cyst and is currently resting to recover from his injury. The date of Gadret's return to racing has not yet been determined.
