Quick Step's Tom Boonen took a fall about 68km after the start of stage six of the Vuelta a España.
"I was just riding along when someone fell in front of me," said Boonen. "A lot of us wound up in a heap on the ground. I've got some pretty good scrapes on my left leg and mostly on my back. This is what's causing me the most pain."
