It's a Vuelta dominated by Spanish riders, and looking at the stat, Griepel is the only sprinter below 60 race days... Cya-Logic on race day fitness
Sorry if it feels like I am flying through the Vuelta. I have a day off again today (due to sickness ) so I am posting as much as I can, so I get to the Tour of Britain and Worlds asap

Tour de Pologne
m | Name | Team | Time | 1 | Luis León Sánchez | Rabobank Cycling Team | 24h41'57 | 2 | Fabian Cancellara | Leopard Trek | + 33 | 3 | Tony Martin | HTC - Highroad | + 53 | . | Points | Edvald Boasson Hagen | Sky ProCycling | KoM | Iván Gutiérrez | Movistar Team | Under 25 | Roman Kreuziger | Pro Team Astana | Team | Vacansoleil - DCM |
Tony Martin lead the team in Poland, and did a great job finishing on the podium, picking up a stage win in the process.
Post Danmark Rundt
m | Name | Team | Time | 1 | Alex Rasmussen | HTC - Highroad | 18h04'40 | 2 | Daryl Impey | Team NetApp | + 1'14 | 3 | Gustav Erik Larsson | Saxo Bank SunGard | + 1'18 | . | Points | Alex Rasmussen | HTC - Highroad | KoM | Davide Rebellin | Miche - Guerciotti | Under 25 | Jetse Bol | Rabobank Continental Team | Team | HTC - Highroad |
With Martin performing well in Poland, Alex Rasmussen stormed to the Overall Victory in Denmark, picking up 4 stages wins and taking home the Points Jersey in the process. Magnificent display from the Dane and the team.
Eneco Tour
m | Name | Team | Time | 1 | Thor Hushovd | Team Garmin - Cervélo | 21h56'34 | 2 | Nick Nuyens | Saxo Bank SunGard | + 1'55 | 3 | Fabian Cancellara | Leopard Trek | + 2'01 | . | Points | Thor Hushovd | Team Garmin - Cervélo | Under 25 | Dominic Klemme | Leopard Trek | Team | Rabobank Cycling Team |
It was a very indifferent Eneco Tour for HTC. Lars Bak and Bernard Eisel co-lead the team, but were unable to hold of the race, missing key moves on the stages. Best placed for the team was Bert Grabsch in 15th.
USA Pro Cycling Challenge
m | Name | Team | Time | 1 | Daniel Martin | Team Garmin - Cervélo | 18h26'54 | 2 | Christophe Le Mével | Team Garmin - Cervélo | + 1'18 | 3 | Kanstantsin Siutsou | HTC - Highroad | + 1'22 | . | Points | Jesús Del Nero | Team NetApp | KoM | Jesús Del Nero | Team NetApp | Under 25 | Daniel Martin | Team Garmin - Cervélo | Team | Team Garmin - Cervélo |
Tejay van Garderen led the team in the inaugural USA Pro Cycling Challenge, but it would be Siutsou who would dominate in the Mountains. The Belorussian picked up 2 stage wins, and led Overall until the penultimate stage, where he was unlucky to lose time on a difficult stage, and finish 3rd overall.
Vattenfall Cyclassics
m | Name | Team | Time | 1 | Graeme Brown | Rabobank Cycling Team | 4h24'30 | 2 | Thor Hushovd | Team Garmin - Cervélo | s.t. | 3 | Tom Boonen | Quick·Step Cycling Team | s.t. |
There was a big shock in Germany, as the Australian Greame Brown held off pre-race favourites Hushovd and Boonen on the line. HTC was led by Matt Goss, who continued to have a disappointing season, finishing 15th in the sprint.
GP Ouest France - Plouay
m | Name | Team | Time | 1 | Philippe Gilbert | Omega Pharma - Lotto | 5h52'51 | 2 | Rigoberto Urán | Sky ProCycling | + 16 | 3 | Damiano Cunego | Lampre - ISD | s.t. |
Yet another disappointing Classic for HTC, as Philippe Gilbert stole the show in France. Bernard Eisel was the highest placed HTC man in 25th place, 2'25" down on Gilbert.

That was a strange stage for Haussler to win, but nicely done by him
Do you edit some transfers or do you keep the Cyanide transfers? |

He won from a breakaway. The top 3 were the remains of it, with GC favourites 2'00+ behind.
I am tempted to leave the transfers as they are. There are some cya-logic transfers (Cancellara and McEwan are the main ones) but the others are quite realistic.
