A further thought about the withdrawals from the Women's Tour De France 2022

The trick to blogging is having intelligent friends who spot things you don't.

R pointed out that there's another difference between the men's and women's races.  As is well known, to the extent that commentators make jokes about it, often, particularly on flat stages, nothing much happens for large numbers of kilometres.  The women's races don't have that, a greater percentage of the stage is raced flat out, which might lead to greater wear and tear on the women's race participants.
