10 September 2018
The BMC Racing Team rider has finished 42 seconds behind Frenchman Julian
Alaphilippe, finishing 10th on the final stage.
But Bevin has the consolation of claiming the points jersey, awarded to the
most consistent cyclist across the overall Tour.
Greg Henderson and Julian Dean are the other New Zealanders to have
previously won it.
Meanwhile George Bennett continues to fall down the overall standings at the
Vuelta a Espana.
The Kiwi's finished 44th on stage 15, to drop a further place to 22nd.
Frenchman Thibaut Pinot has won the stage, while Brit Simon Yates retains the
leader's red jersey.
