> Several of them died on the tour essentially of exertion and dehydration. In case anyone was curious, four cyclists have died during the Tour de France. One drowned during a rest day (in 1910) and two crashed in different ways (in 1935 and 1995). The remaining cyclist died of heart failure on a hot day (in 1967), after mixing alcohol and amphetamines. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_of_Tom_Simpson https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Death_of_Tom_Simpson
