kimiopn
HEW Cyclassics


CSC has chosen a strong team to bring to Germany for this classic. O'Grady has won this race in 2004 and he's here to repeat it. Three very fast man and 4 good flat riders in order to make a strong train to launch Stuart.

CSC Squad

- S. O'Grady
- F. Cancellara
- J. Voigt
- D. Zabriskie
- G. Lombardi
- M. Pedersen
- M. Breschel
- B. Vandborg

But there will be some of the best sprinters in the world on this race.

Main Contenders

- R. McEwen
- T. Boonen
- A. Davis
- D. Napolitano
- I. Galvez
- A. Usov
- J. Casper
- O. Pollack
- D. Bennati
- B. Eisel
- P. Bettini
- A. Curtolo

The 220 kms of the stage are almost always flat, but with such a length and a hard rhythm, attacks might be successful despite this is traditionally a sprinters race.

With just 3 km to go and everybody back in the peloton it's Cancellara who attacks!

i1151.photobucket.com/albums/o621/kimiopn/CSC%202006/HEW%20Cyclassics/PCM001024_zps2b093c55.jpg

A Davitamon rider sticks to him... Steegmans!

i1151.photobucket.com/albums/o621/kimiopn/CSC%202006/HEW%20Cyclassics/PCM001120_zps553de7dd.jpg

CSC tried to win this race, two times with Voigt and then with Cancellara and finally on the sprint with O'Grady but the best the team got was a 10th place. Boonen is having a season that will be on everyone's memory for long time.

Today Sastre lost the time he had won on the team time trial. Tomorrow's stage will be even harder and he needs to react to today's result. Despite the leaders performance, CSC team worked really well today.

Carlos Sastre told the spanish television that "he was not feeling very good today" and that "he wants to improve his condition to give the team the results they deserve". The spanish rider is clearly lacking fitness but with 18 stages left and 7 summit finishes he has the time to improve and beat his opponents. Tomorrow will be a hard day for him and nobody sees him gaining time, so he'll have to minimize the losses again.

Vuelta a España Stages 4 & 5


Stage 4

On the fourth stage of the Vuelta, Sastre and CSC had a difficult task in hands as his fitness is not the ideal one yet to a summit finish on Basque Country.

So the pace was high and there many attacks with Mancebo taking the victory ahead of Cunego, with Boogerd arriving in 3rd and taking the golden jersey.
Spoiler
It only became red in 2010, didn't remember that!

Sastre hold on the back of the previous leader goup and finished in 24th place.

Vuelta a España Stage 6 & 7


Stage 6

The sixth stage had two climbs, one of them matching the end. The last climb is short and steady the first one is long but not so hard.

A 13 men BOD has formed and with no one dangerous the peloton sit and they gain a 10 minute advantage. On the final climb there were many attacks and again Sastre didn't hold the rhythm and again he lost time.

Juan Jose Cobo (Saunier Duval) was the fastest among the escapees and won the stage.

Di Luca was the first from the guys who came from the peloton.

Sastre got stuck on so narrow roads and lost time again.

It's getting very difficult to Sastre as Cunego, Contador, Di Luca or Mancebo, all of them great climbers, have now 2/3 minutes on him. It will take a great remontada in order for him to achieve the golden jersey.

Stage 7

On another sprint day, now Freire took the best of Pettachi. 2-1 on their personal competition. Hushovd is getting closer and we might expect him to be on the front.

Now i have 11145 views. It's good, but not many comments. I hope you're enjoying reading this story.

I planned badly Sastre's fitness but now i have a big challenge! I changed the way of posting because i spend a lot of time preparing race reports. Any feedback is welcome.

Vuelta a España Stage 8 & 9


Stage 8

On the eight stage we had another summit finish with two climbs both on the last third of the stage.

i1151.photobucket.com/albums/o621/kimiopn/CSC%202006/Vuelta%20a%20Espana/Stage%208/PCM000137_zps76df6821.jpg

CSC worked a lot in front to set a high pace. Until the last climb the team controlled the attempts to break.

i1151.photobucket.com/albums/o621/kimiopn/CSC%202006/Vuelta%20a%20Espana/Stage%208/PCM000232_zps7c0da078.jpg

Then when Sastre had no helper he followed Di Luca who looked strong.

i1151.photobucket.com/albums/o621/kimiopn/CSC%202006/Vuelta%20a%20Espana/Stage%208/PCM000730_zpsa2d58488.jpg

They got a gap and then Sastre tried to leave him behind, but Di Luca was strong.

i1151.photobucket.com/albums/o621/kimiopn/CSC%202006/Vuelta%20a%20Espana/Stage%208/PCM000831_zps653f94ae.jpg

And when they entered the last km Cunego joined them. Golden jersey was now far behind.

i1151.photobucket.com/albums/o621/kimiopn/CSC%202006/Vuelta%20a%20Espana/Stage%208/PCM000927_zps49891c2f.jpg

Cunego then escaped to get the win.

And Gutierrez Cataluña stole Sastre the 2nd place right on the line.

Stage 12

After the bad day he had on the previous stage Sastre needed to respond on Stage 12. A short but steady climb on the end of the course gave opportunity to gain some seconds. Di Luca is a specialist on this kind of races and won it beating Perdiguero, another expert on these terrains. Sastre managed to arrive in front of Cunego's group and he won time to most guys ahead of him, finishing fifth.

With 5 summit finishes still ahead, Sastre has 5'04 to Di Luca and 8 other strong riders between them. He'll have to attack a lot in order to achieve the team goal on this Vuelta. Di Luca is amazingly strong and stole the golden jersey to Cunego. If he keeps his form it will hard to take it from him.

Carlos Sastre has gained more than one minute to the overall leader and got his objective today. Again CSC worked really good supporting its leader and they'll have to keep gaining time to the competition. Gutierrez Cataluña shown himself really strong and he is now a clear candidate to win this years Vuelta.

Vuelta a España Stage 15


On the 15th stage of this Vuelta the profile was not as hard as the previous day but the climb to Lagos de Covadonga offered the chance for some more gaps between the favorites.

CSC started to work earlier today, controlling the BOD and setting a hard pace with every rider having it's time in front of the peloton.

With 34 km to go Sastre falls and the race and Vuelta seemed doomed.

All the 6 CSC men on the peloton came back to help Sastre.

Amazing work and Sastre is back on the peloton and soon CSC will lead it again.

After Cuesta and Julich finish their work, Sastre launches his attack with 7 km to go!

With 5 km to go Sastre fins himself a gap. Only 1 man from the BOD in front of him.

Entering the last km Sastre finds Bernabéu. Di Luca and Gutierrez Cataluña are chasing him.

After Sastre crashed everything seemed lost but CSC as a team managed to bring him back and then his class gave him an absolutely amazing win. 3 mountain stages to recover 3'08. Everything is possible!

Another great day to the climbers with the second half of the race with two 1st category climbs and a summit finish in Valgrande-Pajares.

CSC again with a hard work for their team leader.

Cuesta brings Sastre to the front of the race with 16 kms to go. This is a long and hard climb.

Cuesta finishes his work and Sastre's pace gets him a gap.

Contador and Mancebo are the first to jump from the peloton but they can't reach Sastre, who is going with an amazing pace.

Sastre enters the last 5 km with 45 seconds on 6 riders including the first three on GC.

Last km and the chasers are making their last attempt to reach Sastre.

Sastre wins the stage! Another great effort!

Contador is 2nd, Cunego 3rd, Cataluña 4th and the golden jersey is 5th.

Another victorious day for CSC and Sastre. The early attack was meant to win more time but still the difference to Di Luca is now just 2'04 with 2 mountain stages to go. The team will continue this tactic in order to control the race and the breaks because the bonus seconds are precious.
