Boss crashes out of Tour of Qatar
Theo Bos (MTN-Qhubeka) is out of the Tour of Qatar after a crash stage 5, but has escaped serious injury. The Dutch rider was yet another victim of strong winds, rough roads and nervous racing, crashing before the first sprint of the day near kilometer 85 of the 156km stage from the Al Zabara Fort to Madinat ash-Shamal.
Bos crashed into gravel on the side of the road, suffering several deep gashes to his right elbow, hip and knee. He was taken to a hospital to check for fractures.
