Cobbled Classics take their toll as crashes and injuries mount – Pro cycling injury list 2026

Professional cycling is a brutal sport that can rule out anyone, from the world’s best rider to a Continental-level domestique, for months in just a split second.

Crashes are part and parcel of racing and training, which means that every team in the peloton has a list of injured riders to look after at some point during the season. 2026 is no different, with plenty of riders suffering various fractures and injuries in the opening months of the season.
