Tom Boonen (Quick Step) received further medical attention on Thursday after crashing at the end of Wednesday's Scheldeprijs Vlaanderen in Belgium.

Boonen got caught up in a pile-up in the final 100 metres of the race that saw fellow sprinters Robbie McEwen (Katusha) and Greg Van Avermaet (Silence-Lotto) take a tumble.

Former Associate Editor

Nigel Wynn worked as associate editor on CyclingWeekly.com, he worked almost single-handedly on the Cycling Weekly website in its early days. His passion for cycling, his writing and his creativity, as well as his hard work and dedication, were the original driving force behind the website’s success. Without him, CyclingWeekly.com would certainly not exist on the size and scale that it enjoys today. Nigel sadly passed away, following a brave battle with a cancer-related illness, in 2018. He was a highly valued colleague, and more importantly, an exceptional person to work with - his presence is sorely missed.
