Crashing sucks, and can sometimes seriously derail riders\u2019 seasons. We\u2019ve seen this with so many riders \u2014 including recently, cycling\u2019s royal couple, Ur\u0161ka \u017digart<\/a> and Tadej Poga\u010dar. Pogi, of course, crashed out of La Vuelta a Espa\u00f1a, ending his season, and a bid to defend his crown (again) at the Montreal road worlds later this month. He was still planning on going<\/a>, however, to support his Slovenian bros (SloBros\u2122) like veteran pro Primo\u017e Rogli\u010d, who proved he still had it with a second at the Vuelta.<\/p>\n Similarly for \u017digart, she crashed over the weekend and reinjured her jaw, which means her season is also over.<\/p>\n Thankfully, that\u2019s not the case for Osgoode, Ont.\u2019s Gee-West. He crashed with around 45 km to go on Sunday\u2019s Grand Prix Cycliste de Montr\u00e9al.<\/p>\n It sounds like he wasn\u2019t hurt too badly. Canadian Cycling Magazine<\/em> spoke with Lidl-Trek, and a spokesperson said he was able to ride back to the hotel. On Monday, further assessments sound like he will be just fine.<\/p>\n That\u2019s good, because he\u2019s got a big race coming up at the end of the month, the 2026 UCI road worlds in Montreal. He\u2019ll be joined by a few of his former teammates \u2014 Pier-Andr\u00e9 C\u00f4t\u00e9, Hugo Houle, and Michael Woods. Nickolas Zukowsky and Michael Leonard will be there too. Woods, Zuke and Leonard were all in action in Montreal, with Zukowsky at the front seemingly forever riding tempo. Leonard made it into a late break with Gee-West\u2019s teammate Juan Ayuso too. Woodsy was top finished, coming in a very respectable 18th, for only his third road race this year.<\/p>\n Cycling Canada announces women\u2019s teams for 2026 road worlds<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\nGee-West\u2019s update post-crash<\/h2>\n
