 Machado owned out there but was great to see  Willy fighting althought imo he attacked too early...
Stijn did great.

Damn Tiago is being a pain on Willy. Anyway very tough luck in Utah. Hope things go better in Colorado. On the reverse things are going great for Stjin. Good luck for next races. |

 Tour of Colorado - Stage 1
Willy: Well, I'm still in the USA. After a shameful Tour of Utah, I decided to keep going. The doctor told me the breakdown I had in the final stage of Utah was not good for the body, but won't have any big consequences on my physique. I came to Colorado to win!
Willy Wouters
Not the strongest field here, I can definitely compete for the overall victory! Maybe (probably) the last time, this season, that I'll wear this jersey, so I want to enjoy it!
I felt much better than in Utah.
The final kilometer went brilliant!

An amazing start. This prologue will be followed by two stages in the mountains. I'm prepared to defend this jersey. It's only too bad Machado isn't here, I would've loved to take up the glove against him once more.

Tour of Colorado - Stage 2
Willy: I don't expect big gaps today. The finish is steep but not very selective.
Willy Wouters
The team did excellent work. We mainly brought young Americans, to ride in their home country, and I really appreciate them riding for me!
The last one to work was Stetina, who set such a tough pace uphill that we had no attacks.
Stybar, who made the move away from OPQS after all these years, won the stage, proving he made the right decision leaving the Belgian team.

Tour of Colorado - Stage 3
Willy: The toughest stage of this Tour of Colorado.
Willy Wouters
The team put such a high pace from the start that no break was formed today.
And, as yesterday, the last man was Stetina. He put a lot of pressure on the back of the peloton, that completely broke up.
Descending the final mountains, I went to the front, mostly to avoid crashes and risks. I didn't need to attack as tomorrow's time trial should give me a comfortable lead, if I do well!
Breschel is in top form and survived the mountain well enough to win the final sprint. Second day in a row I come in second, but happy!

This was a great tour. I'm so happy I decided to come instead of letting Utah take me down. I'm back, and I'm looking forward to the World Championships, ready to prolong my title!
Stijn will race in Plouay tomorrow, hope he does well!

 Classique de Plouay 2015
Stijn: Generally a race that favors riders of my caliber, I hope to win again after last year!
Stijn Van Gent
Zoricich and Dassy both went in the attack, leaving us protected in the peloton.
Lampre and Rabobank both worked hard to bring them back, and succeeded.
And then it rained attacks. I was constantly on Cancellara's wheel, he was the biggest threat. He attacked up to 3 times!
In the end nobody got away and we were heading for the sprint. It wouldn't be a normal sprint, everyone was dead on their bike, including myself. A fresh puncher could easily beat me here.
Much like in Hamburg, I tried to surprise the pack so nobody would be on my wheel.
This time, I had more success. But one man would not be surprised, while I was slowing down, he had survived in my wheel and now started his final sprint.
And Arthur Vichot wins for his own audience. I strand on the second place. Tough luck!

After a season like this, how can I be disappointed? This second place is great. I tried to outsmart the peloton, and Vichot was very attentive, he deserves this win. The only thing that matters now is the World Championship. Any race I will ride in preparation is just not as important. Though that doesn't mean I won't go for it. The main thing is that my form is definitely getting better. I rode quite offensive and endured the hills better than any other sprinter. For the WC, that's looking very good. I'm starting to dream of a title!!
Next up, the World Port Classics!

Nice win in Colorado for Willy.
Also I find it amusing Sparta Praha has a cycling team.
As for Plouay 2nd is not bad for Stjin. |

I think we can say that Willy is totally back

Jesleyh - A fast day, I admit I have to check the WC ITT, I hope it's mountainous. Iirc, it's starting on a hill, then a descend and then flat.
alex344 - Thanks a lot
sutty68 - Too bad the story's over in America, back to Europe now 
wogsrus - Well, 2nd isn't bad, but winning is a lot more fun, of course
PCM rulezz - Oh yeah. He didn't let himself get down and struck back  |

 World Port Classics - Stage 1
Stijn: Here mainly to build up for the World Championships. Sprinting against some of the finest sprinters in the world will be a good test of my current form.
Willy: I'm also here for preparation. I will help in the lead-out.
Willy Wouters
I did what was expected of me. My lead-out was shorter than necessary so I had energy left for a sprint.
Check out how well I sprinted!
Stijn Van Gent
Markus provided for yet another brilliant lead-out!
I came out as the fastest at first, but then Démare came out of the pack!
I managed to hold him off, barely! It was close but I did it! Victory 16 this season!

This is incredibly great for the confidence. Victory 16 of the season, that's the most of the entire peloton at the moment. It's so great. I feel good for the World Championships, I'm really starting to believe in it!
See you tomorrow,
Stijn |

Brilliant win for Stijn, again
And Willy has found his second breath now, after his Giro.
