COVID cases are upending cycling, and the Tour de France starts in 2 weeks

Cyclist Aleksandr Vlasov was leading the Tour de Suisse before a positive coronavirus test forced him to abandon the race — a fate shared by many other riders. Vlasov is seen here in March, at the Paris-Nice race.

"It's just crazy," Welsh cyclist Geraint Thomas said at the Tour de Suisse on Friday, after around 30 riders were forced to abandon the race.
