Jayco-AlUla announced on Thursday that Michael Matthews will miss some time after a training crash in which he fractured both wrists.
Matthews had enjoyed a strong start to the season with an early win at the Gran Premio Castellón, and Paris-Nice had been the next race on his calendar. The 35-year-old Australian, who has dealt with various frustrating injuries over the years, must instead spend time recovering, with any Classics ambitions now in doubt as well.
