The theft occurred at a hotel near the Le Lioran ski resort, the finish line of the eleventh stage, in the hotel's parking lot.

Witnesses reported that the alarm went off during the night, but the robbery could not be prevented.

Teams Uno X and Israel, also staying at the same hotel, did not experience any incidents.

French team riders started the twelfth stage in Aurillac with spare bicycles, although Anthony Turgis and Thomas Gichignard were without a backup bike.
