 Vuelta a Burgos (2.HC)  Stage 2/5, 155.2 kms
Anthony Turgis was the most active rider in the beginning, yet it's Álvaro Cuadros who created the breakaway, all by himself. Spain's current time trial champion was reeled in with exactly 8 kilometers left until the finish. Race leader Navardauskas again launched from the foot of the last climb. Of our men Intxausti was closest, with Ochoa being glued to his wheel. The Lithuanian's effort didn't last long enough, which allowed Restrepo to outsprint him in the final meters. Ochoa came 3rd while Vandenborre's 10th place was a welcome sign of an improving shape ahead of la Vuelta.

If we manage to keep improving at this rate, a stage win is just around the corner.

 Tour de Pologne (2.UWT) Stage 4/7, 124 kms
This year's shortest stage to Katowice was targeted by Jakub Kaczmarek, Roller Diagama, Antonino Parrinello and Cameron Meyer. Under a modest sun, this quartet's lead never grew bigger than little less than 5 minutes. As the peloton kept closing in with each of the local laps, our image of an easy stage was demolished when Ion Izagirre suffered this nasty crash. The entire team dropped back but a two-minute arrear had been caused. The four in front reached the final km with a gap of 25". Beneath the red kite, Zabel was the first of the bunch to possibly threaten their chances. They did not come fast enough as Giro stage winner Cam Meyer landed a second WT win this year. The bunch would come home in the same time. The clock was implacable when our riders crossed the finish, 2'57" down. The race jury, however, bailed us out and surprisingly awarded the same time as the victor. In the end, Izagirre loses tens of places, but no time.

Vuelta a Burgos (2.HC) Stage 3/5, 172.8 kms
King Lok Cheung attacked right after the first climb. Insausti and Nowak bridged, later Lechuga became the last to join the break of the day. Their maximal gap was about 8 minutes, going into the ultimate 80 kilometers. Guerreiro set the pace on the penultimate labeled climb: it clearly was a little too much for the rest. Over the summit, he had already gained 50". Navardauskas bridged the gap by himself, then remained in Guerreiro's wheel. The duo was reeled in again ahead of the final 3rd category climb. King Lok Cheung shook off his last companion in Ion Insausti on this hill. The pack followed at 1'38", 21km to the line near the Ojo Guareña caves. Hongkong's rare pro cyclist was caught before, yet another, uphill sprint. Movistar made an massive train for Wippert, we did the same for Ochoa. As soon as the road started to rise, nobody had a real answer to Michael Valgren's kick. Thwaites came second, Diego Ochoa claimed a 6th place.

Very much in contention for both races. Let's hope the only way is up for the team in the standings after the next stages.

Only a couple of days away now, let's hope the results are going to reflect why we've been longing for them.

Our riders in the current top 10s probably won't make it on the truly decisive routes, yet team leaders Izagirre (Pol.) and Vandenborre/Guerreiro (Burgos) are either in the same time or only bonus seconds down.

Tour de Pologne (2.UWT)  Stage 5/7, 165 kms
The queen stage breakaway didn't include Jona Klever. The presence of Dall'Oste, Pichon and Tomassini could put his mountain jersey in danger. Those closest to him in the KoM standings luckily failed to gather enough points. Matteo Rabottini and Lachlan Morton remained in front across the first three climbs. Going into the last 60km, the two still had a 2'45" lead. Meanwhile, the shrinking peloton was being afflicted by multiple crashes. Simon Yates, Fuglsang, König, Ghilardi, Cerezo were among the victims. Morton distanced Rabottini on the final cat. 1 Glodówka climb. His lead's still over 2'30", to a bunch of less than 50 men; 20 kilometers left today. Jonathan coming third on that same penultimate climb was his last trick of the day. Sebastian Henao took charge of chasing down two leaders. Seba had enough left to attack on the ultimate bump after he did. König, Landa and Aru bridged as the others could not. I. Izagirre sat in the E2. Fabio Aru had that little more on a false flat section near the final km. He rode to a solo victory in Zakopane, Poland's major ski resort. The Italian looks set to at least podium a WT stage race for the 4th time this season. Sebastian took a decent second place, ahead of Landa and König. In the background, one can spot Ion Izagirre sprint to 5th, one minute down.

It's a pity he's lost time before with good post-TDF legs. Next stage will be a busy one; we have a mountain jersey to defend and Izagirre's GC position to improve.

Luckily most of those involved are fine and we were able to conclude in a nice way.

Vuelta a Burgos (2.HC) Stage 4/5, 157 kms
Facing the elements, mountain jersey wearer Lok Cheung won the day's only sprint. He dragged along Miguel Mínguez and Jonathan Castroviejo. The peloton took it easy because of a crash that involved Navardauskas. The three were caught, before the last out of two local laps. Fog and rain persisted, yet the pace of the peloton did go up in the last 20 kilometers. Our team handled the pace well as we managed to stay near the front. It didn't get us anything, but we safely concluded a hard day in the saddle. Movistar's train worked flawlessly, and Wippert finished it off. Second for Van Asbroeck, third for Thwaites. Diego Ochoa concluded in 11th place.

I don't think proper roads go much closer to mountains than this in Poland.
Could be, but he'll need a very good day for to strike on this kind of stage.

Tour de Pologne (2.UWT) Stage 6/7, 191.5 kms
A queen stage stuffed with climbs demands for KoM jersey contenders to attack. Thus so did Jonathan, right after the gunshot. This gave him the edge over three chasers (see background) on the first two cat. 1 climbs. Rabottini, Morton, Saint-Martin bridged but they paid for these efforts on most of the hills. Jonathan's gap in the KoM standings grew comforting. The sun exited as Klever, Morton were the strongest in once more foggy conditions. Entering the ultimate 38 km lap, the bunch followed at 2'35". Morton won the next mountain sprint, then got hit by a counter over the top. Jonathan had 21kms left to cover, with a time advantage of only 1'. The Ecuadorian's ship stranded on the next climb, after which I.Izagirre played his card. His move didn't cause any separation in the main group. After several accelerations, the uphill finish sector was too much for Ion. He lost 40" to the first group, where Simon Yates beat Lawson Craddock.

Good that Klever is still the leader of KoM standings. I think I understand what Ion wanted to do, but I think that "move" was not so "Klever" |
