The Association of Professional Cyclists (CPA) issued a statement Friday denouncing the treatment of riders and UCI President Pat McQuaid by race organisers. McQuaid was denied accreditation for the Tour de France by the ASO, a move which the statement called "a serious lack of respect to the institutional representative of world cycling."
