‘It’s just bike racing’ – Ben Healy on being caught on Tour de France stage 14 final climb

After spending the day in the breakaway, Ben Healy launched a solo attack in a bid for glory on the Tour de France stage 14 in the Pyrenees on Saturday.  The Irishman hit the bottom of the final climb, the Pla d’Adet (10.6km at 7.9%), and was awarded most combative rider for his solo attack with just over a minute to the yellow-jersey group that was on a mission to get the time bonus seconds at the finish line. 

But Healy was caught by yellow jersey Tadej Pogačar and his UAE teammate Adam Yates, and the hope for a stage victory had to be postponed to another day.
