*slowly raises middle finger to Sella*
Well, congrat's to Bikex for the win. 2nd in the GC is not too bad, but for the second year in a row, it's podium at Tachira but no win.. 3rd last year, 2nd now. Next year, win! |

From win goal to very very very happy with a top 10... Guess who came 10th in 2014?

Meh, that leaves us with quite some work to do in Bayern to counter BPost and Aegon.

No wonder Alakagom needed that long. He had to replay and replay until Rodas won. Apparently he gave up under pressure.
Thanks. Reports were nice read.
What to say about this race. 5th, 7th, 13th! 1-2 in U25 ranking and 1 stage win. Must be one of the best races for my team without a big leader in especially.
Congrats to Bpost, who finally get a win here. In especially as Zingle would have had a chance possibly without the break and Keukeleire being the big sprinter missing out.
Also congrats to Siam. Well deserved win by Sella here. Clearly was stronger than Rujano.

Oh so close there. Well congrats on the victory Count, it looks well deserved.
Thanks for the reports Alak, and sorry for the late nagging. Taking Tachira is a very respectable task, with it being the first big stage-race of the season, so really, thanks 
Congratulations to Siam as well. They did enough to put Rujano away and showed aggression all the way through the race.
Poor event for us though. Avelino's triumph really saves our bacon, but losing the green jersey and having the 9th best climber finishing 17th is a bad omen for the season to come.

I'm glad for the win and thanks for the congratulations guys. I'm also sorry I stopped Rodas from winning.
I had this stage circled for Zingle so to see it won is nice. Thanks for the reports Alak.

Gorka pretty decent there for 6th but arguably should have done better.
In terms of the GC Txurruka finishing 8th is certainly not disappointing as to be fair I didn't expect a lot coming into the race. Along with Bouhanni's efforts in the sprints this was a good points haul.

Cool to see Rodas on the move, kind of a pity to not see him grab the stage, but at least he improved on his stage result from 2012
Congratulations to Bikex, that's a great way to start the season. Also very nice to see Olivier do well for roturn, being a "home grown" talent and maxed out.
Thanks for the final report as well, Alakagom, eventhough it took a while  |

Must admit I was one year ahead and thought he was 79 MO now
Even more impressive result, then! |

They race finished in the only way it was going, with Pantano dropping even further behind...
Nice to see Carapaz alive and awesome to see Rodas giving it one final go for a stage here when he's still remotely usefull
Thanks for the quality reports Alak! You definetely got my hopes up this race earlier
And huge congrats to Bikex, this race genuinly couldn't have turned out better for him!

Thank you very much for the reports Alak
Congrats to Sella/Siam Cement and De Clercq/Bpost for their victories today.
Before this stage I though it was a big mistake to send Martinez here, even coming here with a squad at all. But after today I'm glad we did it, third place in the stage and sixth in the GC for Martinez 
Rodas Really sad for Ian, but I have something to cheer you up:
| 10 | SanCor Cycling Team | + 20'54 (10) | | 11 | Chiquita - Universal p/b Minions | + 21'42 (11) |

Nice last stage for us with Sella securing the Points jersey after already having the other two jersey. Also the team classification is ours, so we should get a lot of points out of this race to have a decent kick start to the season to stay away from the relegating positions right away.
Only thing that sucks for me is that I had a OR win goal on Tachira and decided for Bulgaria in the end. I think that was the first and last time I take an OR goal. |
