John Degenkolb has announced that he is targeting a stage win at the Tour de France as he continues to recover from a training ride crash in Calpe, Spain when a car drove head on into six Giant-Alpecin riders. The 26-year-old, who suffered a fracture to his left radius in the January 23 crash and had reconstructive surgery to save his left index finger, aims to be back racing in "eight to ten weeks".
