Tao Geoghegan Hart at the 2017 World Championships elite men's time trial (Sunada)
Tao Geoghegan Hart's hopes for a good performance during the elite men's individual time trial at the 2017 UCI Road World Championships were scuppered by an early crash and breathing problems.
The 22-year-old from London had been a relatively late call up for the event in Bergen, Norway, after the withdrawal of Steve Cummings. Any chances of a good time were spoiled when he crashed, scuffing up his right-hand side and cutting his knee. He remounted and finished the race.
