Giro dell'Emelia
Part of Uran's Lombardia preperations.
When the right move went, it was Wegmann, Uran and Garzelli
On the last of the sharp hills, Wegmann but in an attack got a gap but was pulled back and in the flat before the upward finish, Uran put in an attack to test his opponents
Wegmann fell away but Garzelli didnt
Sprinting up the steep hill to the line, Garzelli came closer .. and closer .. and closer ..
but not close enough!
Uran's first ever victory!
