British rider still leads Tour after chaotic 9th stage claims 12 riders
CHAMBERY, France - The Tour de France threw the kitchen sink at Chris Froome on Sunday.
Steep mountain ascents, followed by daredevil descents at speeds exceeding 45 miles per hour that wiped out other riders. Throw in the loss of his top teammate in a crash, a breakdown of his bike and rivals who tried to make him crack with bursts of acceleration.
