Alaphilippe has broken two bones in his hand apparently. Looks like it could've been far worse.

Metacarpals 2 & 4 to the extent of needing surgery, though that is presumably for accurate alignment and speed of recovery. Not sure how he broke 2&4 without getting 3 or 5, must have been an odd stress pattern.

British people — I see in this article that Tao’s father’s name is Tom Geoghan. Is that a typo or does it indicate some family relationship? https://www.scotsman.com/sport/other-sport/scottish-cyclist-enjoying-limelight-after-breakthrough-alps-wins-1418337 And is Tao a Scots name? Couldn’t find anything about that.

Geoghan is just another valid spelling. Occasionally families will Anglicise names, it's all a bit arbitrary.

The British championship jersey is very dull. They should join the new power-garish movement and have all four flags, two on the front, two on the back. With the Queen's face on the sleeves.
