‘It’s a fairytale’ – Ben Healy makes history joining prestigious list of Irish cyclists to wear yellow jersey at the Tour de France

It was a day to remember for Ben Healy as the EF Education-EasyPost rider finished third on stage 10 into Le Mont-Dore Puy de Sancy and moved into the yellow jersey at the Tour de France, becoming only the fourth Irish cyclist in history to do.

“It’s a fairytale. If you told me this before the Tour, I wouldn’t have believed you. To wear the yellow jersey is incredible, and beyond belief,” Healy said in a post-race interview.
