Damn it Cadurys you inactive b*stards.... Still great stuff from Aleksiev, the youngster is having a really solid season. Also Parra and Colorado still in good GC positions. Not a bad race so far.
And excellent reports as well. Almost hard to believe the race is actually happening

I think that was a really crappy stage. You'd expect the bunch to split up on a massive climb like that, but effectively it was a bunch sprint after the climb It sucks that we didn't see a battle between the climbing favourites, but I guess that's PCM12? And I'm quite sour that those inactive Cadbury bastards won
Anyway - thanks Count. You're excellent reporting turned a crappy stage into an exciting read As for those narrow roads, I didn't notice any favourites losing time, so I'm sure they weren't a problem

Great to see this race got the reports it deserved after being to blame for the huge delay.
Again an apology to everyone affected, thanks to Count for taking over and managing those stage problems and congratulations to BNCR and everyone else satisfied with the outcome.
Oh, and I really need some new rankings, going through 15 races in one hour completely messed my head up and I have no idea how they affected the PCT and CT overall standings at all

Really surprised at the lack of selection on all the mountains stages, meaning both Edwin and Colorado missed out on Top10 GC... But it does fit more our overall season performance of "just not quite enough"...
Still onwards with the season, still got some good races to come for us and some big performances could still get us to PCT... some really big performances... a lot of really big performances.... a couple of 1-10's couldn't hurt at this point....

Another disappointment of Menchov and the team.
I don't know if there will be any rider with worst €/points ratio...
We've shown very little pride...
Congratulations to dev4ever and thanks Count for the reports.

Grats dev! I knew Esquivel would do well here
Those weird mountains were why I didn't go here. It's all about positioning on the top, and if no weird gaps appear, this was bound to happen. Kinda sad to see this randomness though. I know it's fun and it's part of cycling, but it's happening just a bit too often imo.

Woho first tour win for the team EVER!
2 stage wins, 2nd Points, 2nd youth and 2nd team is just brilliant!! Cesar Rojas also finishing in a strong 10th position after being domestique for the team leader is also great!
By the way thanks for all the congrats and the great reports Count! More races like this and we might actually have a shot at promotion afterall

Well I think my team acomplished something.
Was hoping for a slightly more dramatic (and selective) mountain stages, but I dindn't have the best climber so that might have been for the best!
grats to dev and again thanks for the reports Count
