Pau, Thursday 18th July 2019 – During today’s stage of the Tour de France, Team Bahrain Merida rider Rohan Dennis reluctantly withdrew from the race.
Dennis commented: ‘I am very disappointed to leave the race at this point. Obviously the individual time trial tomorrow had been a big goal for me and the team, but given my current feeling it was the right decision to withdraw earlier today.
I wish my teammates the very best for the remainder of the race and would like to thank all the Tour de France fans who cheered for me, at home and on the roadside, since Brussels.
I will hopefully be back competing in this great race again over the coming seasons.’
