Great result, once again
Winning every now and then isn't unrealistic, but ti's your choice what you do with the difficulty |

@All: Thanks for the responses, I will keep it on hard difficulity.
Vuelta a Mallorca: Preview
The route
A flat stage for the sprinters.
A flat stage with two small hills, it will most likely be for the sprinters.
A hilly stage, it could be decided between the favourites or the members of a lucky breakaway.
The last stage's first half is fairly hilly, then in the second climb there is a massive climb, where the GC most likely will be decided.
Favourites
Squad
F. Pozzato
E. Favilli
D. Ulissi
J. Rujano
G. Brambilla
D. Oss
R. Valls
This is the first race for two of our leaders, so we don't expect much from it. It will be great for getting themselves in shape for the more important races. |

Ian Butler: Well, his fitness is around 60-65, so I'd not expect too much from him, but who knows?
Miguel98: Well, he will surely work a lot, he is definitely in a teammate role for this race.
Vuelta a Mallorca: Stage 1
A flat stage for the sprinters.
The breakaway with the two most famous members (Fuglsang and Castroviejo) highlighted.
They got caught easily by Liquigas and Saxo. We tried to get the wheel of Sagan for the sprint, but we knew we might not have a chance for a top 10 place with the amount of strong sprinters in the peloton.
Who won? Aaand... The announcer is shouting the name of J.J.Haedo who took this brilliant win in front of Sagan! What a great victory for Saxo!

As expected, we did not make it into the top 10. But the guys gave their best, so we can't be disappointed. Also, having three riders in the top 15 is not that bad.
The big loser of the day was definitely Dan Martin, who lost 4'34 thanks to a split in the peloton. We probably won't see him contending the GC in this year's Vuelta a Mallorca. |

Not a bad start, but hopefully the guys are still going to be able to do bigger things in the next stages. |

Did you work out how to disappear the names on your keyboard?
Anyway, some quality sprinters in Mallorca so let's see if Oss can get a top 10 |

FroomeDog99: Yes, I did, thanks to kimiopn! But as I said at the beginning, I had quite a few reports pre-written (until the end of Mallorca), so from then you will see floatingandreallyannoyingname-less pictures
fernando97: Well, tomorrow is another flat stage, let's see what they can do! |

Ian Butler: Poor guy... At least he managed to stay in the peloton today!
Miguel98: I was surprised too, but he must have had a really good day!
sutty68: They might have delivered some nice results today, too!
Vuelta a Mallorca: Stage 2
Another flat stage, this time with two tiny climbs. Sagan is the clear favourite of the stage.
The BotD contained B. Feillu and M. Cardoso. The portuguese took both of the Intermediate sprints.
But they were caught 10 km to go. This time we decided to build a sprint train ourselves. It looked kind of promising...
Goddaert takes a surprising win for AG2R in front of Rojas and Sagan. Oss finishes on an amazing 5th place. Well done, Daniel!

We have done quite well in the last flat stage, we are now heading for the hills. With the amount of great climbers in the peloton, we might not have a shot at the GC, but we will try to figure out something!
Also, big loser of the day: Denis Menchov. Just like Martin yesterday, he loses over 4 minutes thanks to a split in the peloton. |

fernando97, sutty68, SSJ2Luigi, IanButler: Thanks for the following and the support, I really appreciate it.
Vuelta a Mallorca: Stage 3
A hilly stage, we can expect some time gaps. Brambilla decided to try and go for the Mountain Jersey...
...and here he is celebrating his first mountain sprint victory...
...and the second one.
It was a hectic stage, L.L.Sanchez went on a solo ride, followed by Brambilla in the distance.
Brambilla has been caught by the scary train of Liquigas, but LuLu was still hanging on...
But eventually he got caught too. That's when the favourites started to attack.
Purito and Verdugo managed to get a small gap...
But they were caught too... So Purito attacked again!
But eventually it all came down to the sprint of the strongest riders...Rodriguez was in a very good position...
...But it was his teammate, Moreno, who took the victory! Well done!
The results

Very strangely we did not lose any time, even though we were miles back... The jury must have been sleeping.
Also, yesterday's performance by Menchov was not just a coincidence, he is clearly out of form... He lost over 20 (!) minutes today.
Oh, one more thing:

Well done on not losing any time there despite it looking like they are 30 seconds behind
