Great to see someone is willing to read from the start Selwink, back when it wasn't quite as easy in CT races as it is now ... see below.
---
Here is how the ProTour rankings look after the Giro and Catalunya:
Next up is a non ProTour race though, Euskal Bizikleta. Race day fitness is the main reason for being here, ahead of the Tour de Suisse, which is Michael Rogers' main target of the season.
Looking at the top riders in the field, we can expect a good result
 Euskal Bizikleta, 2010
 Rogers, Ignatiev, Kittel, Nolf, Henshaw
The first stage ended with a tough hill, followed by a descent. Rogers, Ignatiev and Kittel made the selection of 5, with Gerdemann and Plaza.
Ignatiev and Kittel had to really dig deep to get there. But once in that situation, it is just one you can't lose from.
| 1 | Mikhail Ignatiev | DFL - CYCLINGNEWS - LITESPEED | 4h13'21 | | 2 | Marcel Kittel | DFL - CYCLINGNEWS - LITESPEED | s.t. | | 3 | Rubén Plaza | SAUNIER DUVAL - PRODIR | s.t. | | 4 | Linus Gerdemann | CAISSE D'EPARGNE | s.t. | | 5 | Michael Rogers | DFL - CYCLINGNEWS - LITESPEED | s.t. | | 6 | David Herrero | KARPIN GALICIA | + 28 | | 7 | David Blanco | CAISSE D'EPARGNE | s.t. | | 8 | Roberto Traficante | TEAM LPR | s.t. | | 9 | Ricardo Mestre | LAMPRE - FONDITAL | s.t. | | 10 | Yoann Offredo | BARLOWORLD | s.t. | | 11 | Eduard Vorganov | EUSKALTEL - EUSKADI | s.t. | | 12 | Iker Flores | FUERTEVENTURA - CANARIAS TEAM | s.t. | | 13 | Cândido Barbosa | ACQUA & SAPONE - CAFFÉ MOKAMBO | + 1'32 | | 14 | Enrique Mata | ORBEA - OREKA S.D.A. | s.t. | | 15 | Jonathan Castroviejo | TEAM LPR | s.t. |
On Stage 2 both Kittel and Ignatiev abandoned the race to catch a flight to the Dauphine. They did this not before leading the peloton and controlling an early move from Plaza.
At the finish, Rogers beat Gerdemann to win.
| 1 | Michael Rogers | DFL - CYCLINGNEWS - LITESPEED | 2h28'41 | | 2 | Linus Gerdemann | CAISSE D'EPARGNE | s.t. | | 3 | José Serpa | RELAX - GAM | + 44 | | 4 | Cândido Barbosa | ACQUA & SAPONE - CAFFÉ MOKAMBO | s.t. | | 5 | David Blanco | CAISSE D'EPARGNE | + 53 | | 6 | José Carlos Rodrigues | TEAM LPR | + 1'15 | | 7 | Jonathan Castroviejo | TEAM LPR | s.t. | | 8 | Joao Cabreira | KARPIN GALICIA | s.t. | | 9 | Nelson Vitorino | BARLOWORLD | s.t. | | 10 | Pablo Lastras | CAISSE D'EPARGNE | s.t. |
Then Rogers won the TT
| 1 | Michael Rogers | DFL - CYCLINGNEWS - LITESPEED | 13'29 | | 2 | Rubén Plaza | SAUNIER DUVAL - PRODIR | + 18 | | 3 | Przemyslaw Niemiec | CAISSE D'EPARGNE | + 19 | | 4 | Linus Gerdemann | CAISSE D'EPARGNE | s.t. | | 5 | Gustav Larsson | RELAX - GAM | + 31 | | 6 | Eladio Sánchez | FUERTEVENTURA - CANARIAS TEAM | + 32 | | 7 | Joao Cabreira | KARPIN GALICIA | + 34 | | 8 | David Herrero | KARPIN GALICIA | + 35 | | 9 | David Blanco | CAISSE D'EPARGNE | + 38 | | 10 | José Serpa | RELAX - GAM | s.t. |
But on the final stage it was 'only' 2nd place.
| 1 | Rubén Plaza | SAUNIER DUVAL - PRODIR | 5h21'53 | | 2 | Michael Rogers | DFL - CYCLINGNEWS - LITESPEED | s.t. | | 3 | Linus Gerdemann | CAISSE D'EPARGNE | + 18 | | 4 | David Herrero | KARPIN GALICIA | + 29 | | 5 | Nelson Vitorino | BARLOWORLD | + 1'00 | | 6 | David Blanco | CAISSE D'EPARGNE | + 3'12 | | 7 | Danilo Wyss | TEAM LPR | s.t. | | 8 | Klaas Vantornout | EUSKALTEL - EUSKADI | s.t. | | 9 | Michael Albasini | LAMPRE - FONDITAL | s.t. | | 10 | Antonio GarcÃa González | LAMPRE - FONDITAL | s.t. |
Final GC
| 1 | Michael Rogers | DFL - CYCLINGNEWS - LITESPEED | 12h16'52 | | 2 | Linus Gerdemann | CAISSE D'EPARGNE | + 49 | | 3 | Rubén Plaza | SAUNIER DUVAL - PRODIR | + 2'08 | | 4 | David Herrero | KARPIN GALICIA | + 3'19 | | 5 | Nelson Vitorino | BARLOWORLD | + 5'18 | | 6 | David Blanco | CAISSE D'EPARGNE | + 5'43 | | 7 | Ricardo Mestre | LAMPRE - FONDITAL | + 6'15 | | 8 | Roberto Traficante | TEAM LPR | + 6'24 | | 9 | Cândido Barbosa | ACQUA & SAPONE - CAFFÉ MOKAMBO | + 6'44 | | 10 | Jonathan Castroviejo | TEAM LPR | + 7'26 | | 11 | Iker Flores | FUERTEVENTURA - CANARIAS TEAM | + 7'49 | | 12 | Eduard Vorganov | EUSKALTEL - EUSKADI | + 8'01 | | 13 | Joao Cabreira | KARPIN GALICIA | + 8'14 | | 14 | José Carlos Rodrigues | TEAM LPR | + 8'20 | | 15 | Pablo Lastras | CAISSE D'EPARGNE | + 8'27 | | 16 | Przemyslaw Niemiec | CAISSE D'EPARGNE | + 8'30 | | 17 | Julio Alberto Pérez Cuapio | TEAM LPR | + 8'46 | | 18 | Dimitri Champion | SAUNIER DUVAL - PRODIR | + 8'53 | | 19 | Antonio GarcÃa González | LAMPRE - FONDITAL | + 9'15 | | 20 | Ben Hermans | LIQUIGAS | + 9'20 |

Thanks all.
 Criterium du Dauphine-Libere, 2010 Stage 1: Valence - Valence
Evans, Tenorio, Ignatiev, Kittel, Froome, Sabatini, Efimkin, Martin
Cadel Evans leads the team for one last big race of the season. What has he got coming out of the Giro? Tenorio is here too but after a mini peak for Catalunya, his form is lower now - but building up for the Tour.
Here are the GC riders to watch:
Two time trials in the Dauphine, starting with an opening prologue. Ignatiev and Kittel are our best bets here.
World Champion Cancellara is here, but he finishes 3 seconds behind the winner - which is only enough for 14th place!
Both Kittel and Evans finishes 2 seconds down for 7th and 12th place respectively
It's very tight. Our best rider was Ignatiev, but that was only enough for 2nd
The winner? Dmytro Grabovskyy! A bit of a surprising result with his 78 TT vs 80 TT of Ignatiev.

Criterium du Dauphine-Libere, 2010 Stage 2: Valence - Bourgoin Jalieu
Evans, Tenorio, Ignatiev, Kittel, Froome, Sabatini, Efimkin, Martin
A flat stage today. Sabatini tried to get in the breakaway but it was chased down close to the first intermediate sprint. Opportunity!
Ignatiev attacked 2.5km out from the sprint, to pick up enough of an advantage before the sprinters of the field made their moves a kilometre later. And it worked. Sprint won, 6 seconds gain, into a provisional race lead!
We then deployed Operation: Annoy Sprinters. We form the prominent sprint train with Evans -> Kittel -> Ignatiev. And led by former DFL rider, they line up on Ignatiev's wheel.
And then Ignatiev just sat up, taking them all back with him!!
All unfortunately, except Lampre.
And so Lampre went on to take a 1-2 of Gavazzi in front of Eisel. Stevic eventually put in a fast recovery for 4th (Sorry Ivan!) while Kittel managed a strong 5th. Remember, his sprint stat is 68 in this universe!
Had Stevic won, he would have taken the race lead. But Gavazzi was further behind on Stage 1 - so the race lead goes to Ignatiev!

Haha, nice to see some PCM07 love going around - and yes, I thought you might comment on Stevic admir 
Criterium du Dauphine-Libere, 2010 Stage 3: Vienne - Bellegarde sur Valserine
Evans, Tenorio, Ignatiev, Kittel, Froome, Sabatini, Efimkin, Martin
Some hills on Stage 3, to make a selection.
Ignatiev is happy to hold the Yellow jersey.
But on the big climb of the day, one of the main GC favourites Kreuziger (80 Mo, 76 Hl) launched an attack. Anton followed, so did Evans
And it was Evans and Anton who took the lead. 20km to go, with mostly downhill and one smaller climb.
There was a chasing group of Fothen, Russ, Dekker, Kreuziger, Nibali, Pereiro and our own Efimkin but that group was caught with 4km to go. Dekker marked the occasion by crashing.
Shortly followed by Kreuziger crashing as well!
Evans and Anton held on up front, and it was the former DFL rider who outsprinted Evans.
Still, a very good day for Evans. 40 seconds gained on most, and an extra 2 minutes gained on big rivals Dekker and Kreuziger. He takes over the race lead.

Good ride from Cadel there, those seconds picked up will be vital especially those on Dekker assuming he isn't injured. |

There's various reports stored up, I'm just busy And quite obviously, this is the story amongst all others that never dies
But here, have another update:
Criterium du Dauphine-Libere, 2010 Stage 4: Bellegarde sur Valserine - Bellegarde sur Valserine
Evans, Tenorio, Ignatiev, Kittel, Froome, Sabatini, Efimkin, Martin
With some quite excellent timing, Marcel Kittel has received a stats boost just prior to Stage 4: the next time trial!
And what happened next? He won the stage!
Ignatiev had an off day but Evans rode well, putting good time into Anton by nearly catching him.
And bizarrely, the race organisers handed Kittel 20 bonus seconds for winning - which moved him into the race lead! We have now had 3 different race leaders within DFL after just 4 stages.

Woohoo, free advertising.
Well I do have some reports stored up still... Time for one that neatly links together the two "Remember when..." news pieces so far.
---
Criterium du Dauphine-Libere, 2010 Stage 5: Geneva - Le Grand Bornand
Evans, Tenorio, Ignatiev, Kittel, Froome, Sabatini, Efimkin, Martin
As if having the Tour de Suisse in June is not enough, the Dauphine is now in Switzerland too, at least for the start of the stage. First mountains of the race.
Kittel now in the race lead, but not for long
On the 2nd climb of the day, Efimkin did what is now known as a 'Team Sky'. Just drilling it on the front, dropping everyone - even this early in the stage. Tenorio and Evans made the split, at the back of the bunch.
This didn't exactly work, as half the group then dropped us on the descent and we just went back to the larger peloton.
Skip to the final climb, the Col de la Colombiere. And the situation has changed. Dutch duo Eltink and Mollema are away (with a former breakaway rider for company) with 30 seconds on a group of 10 - featuring Evans.
Further up, it is still Saunier Duval's Mollema going strong, cutting through the break of the day. Evans is now 2nd best GC rider on the road, but solo, and over a minute and a half behind.
And that's more or less how it stayed for the rest of the stage. Christophe Moreau won - the last survivor of the breakaway. Mollema a close second.
Evans was joined by Maxim Belkov, and takes 4th on the stage - but too much time was lost to Mollema, who leads the race by 50 seconds.
Good time gained on the rest, while Kreuziger is clearly injured - that could be one less rival for us in the Tour.
