Sure the (in total) 4 top 10's are nice, but we had hoped for more. We just couldn't make a proper gap on 2nd stage and none of my guys are good in a sprint...
But in deed of course always nice with (another) mountain jersey

Our sponsors want us to get a top 10 in this race. Lasse Bøchman is our main man for the job.
Stage 1
We’ll start with a 5,1 km prologue.
First man expected to set a decent time is German veteran Jens Voigt, but he finishes 2nd in same time as Ángel Vicioso.
Our first hope for a halfdecent time is Søren Nissen, who finishes a provisional 6th.
As Alex Rasmussen sets off Vande Velde is in the lead ahead of fellow countryman Ben King. Alex change that as he clocks in bets time so far.
Fuglsang know that he has to perform well today to be allowed to ride his own chance in the race. And he does being the first to beat Alex. Now 1 & 2 in the provisional standings are Danish!
No one has been able to beat the Danes when Bøchman is off. Will the Danish champion be able to make it a hattrick?
The answer is no as Lasse only manage to get a provisional 7th place. He does prefer the longer TT's though, so it's not that big a surprise.
Naturally the world champion is the big favourite today and he is the first to be able to beat the Danes on top.
Fuglsang ends up losing 2nd to Boom.

Stage 2
I’d be surprised if this ends with anything but a bunch sprint. Doesn’t mean the guys can’t try their best though...
There’s plenty of will among the riders to cheat the sprinters, but the peloton doesn’t quite agree that a breakaway is a good idea today…
The most successful break today is formed by Jens Erik and Bert De Backer. The two is joined by three additional riders and when the peloton starts putting on the pressure with 70 km to go the break has just over 6 minutes gap. With a bit of luck they can still make it…
50 km and four minutes. Looks like the break will be caught with about 10 km to the finish.
With 20 km to go the break can see the peloton behind and things start to get hectic in front.
Carlström and Nybö tries to take the sprinter by surprise, but Lotto has everything under control.
Greipel rewards his teammates hard work by winning in front of three former World Champions.
A huge crash shortly before the finish leaves 97 riders losing nearly four minutes to Greipel today.
Bøchman came in in the front group but prominent riders like Fuglsang, Devolder, Boom and Westra lost a lot of time today.

Stage 3
The organizers call this a cobble stage, but really it is as classic flat sprinters stage since the cobble section in very short and in the middle of the stage…
A big break gets going but Rabobank, Orica and Lotto won’t let then go out to play.
For a moment it looked like Christensen might have found his way to a successful break, but as soon as the gap reached 3 minutes the sprinter teams started reeling them back in.
But then when the gap was down to just over a minute Ballan jumps from the peloton to the break and the peloton loosens its grip again.
Cobble time with 50 km to go and a gap of just over four minutes.
As expected the break is caught with 10 km to go and the rest us up to the sprinters. Todays sprint is much closer than yesterday.
Not that it changes a lot on the line though…

Stage 4
This is the day Lasse really has to step up and prove that our faith in him is just. It’s the only hilly stage of the race so we can’t afford mistakes today!
There’s plenty of attacking in the early part of the race, but Omega Pharma – QuickStep is keeping everyone fairly close.
9 riders end up forming the break. Among them strong names like Ulissi, Urán, Ballan and Di Luca. Unfortunaltely none of our guys got in their.
OmegaPharma – QuickStep pull hard in front of the peloton and with 40 km to go they have pulled a 22-rider group containing Nissen and Bøchman away from the rest. The 9 in front have 2’40’’ to this group. All in all a good situation for us!
With 6 km to go and the last hill overwith 8 riders in front have 1 minute to the second group with all the favourites.
5 km to go and Lasse decides to try and see if he can win a little time, but unsuccessful.

This far I'm very happy about Lasses performance. He has avoided getting caught by crashes and he has done his best to win a little time. I truly believe he can finish the job on the TT tomorrow!

Lasse surprisingly good here!
Eneco Tour is a good tour to pick up some WT points more easily than other one-week races |

Stage 5
14 km of TT’ing. Tony Martin will defend his lead and hopefully Lasse will be able to defend his place in top 5.
Alex Rasmussen is the first to indicate this might be a good day for Denmark as he finish in provisional best time. 21 seconds faster than Konovalovas.
Westra is first to beat Alex just before Nybö crosses the line. Shortly after Fuglsang rides in the same time as Westra.
Lasse is looking strong today, so hopefully he will bring some honour to the jersey today.
Nibali is probably the biggest threat against Lasse in teh GC, but Bøchman is faster today! Provisional 4th 4 seconds slower than Westra!
Will he even have a chance of threatening Chavanel and Thomas?
Obviously Tony Martin is completely out of reach...

Stage 6
Should be another sprint. We’ll chase the break and protect Lasse today.
A tough day to form a break but in the end Søren Nissen gets going with De Backer and Bilbao.
Classic stage finish. 14 km from the finish a crash splits the peloton in two and 12 km from finish the break is caught.
Everything looks like a certain bunch sprint, but then for a moment Lasse sees a bit of hesitation and decides to spice things up.
Still the bunch sprint really was inevitable.
Just as it seems impossible to beat Greipel at the moment!

Stage 7
Same procedure as yesterday...
Omega Pharma – QuickStep is running a tight shift again today and only one rider can manage to get a decisive lead: Alessandro Ballan.
OmegaPharma remains in control but with 5 km to go Lasse gives it one last go while Ballan is still 45 seconds ahead.
Lasse catch up with Ballan but 1,5 km from the line so does the rest of the peloton and Boonen proves strongest today.
Unfortunately the bonus seconds made Tommeke pass Lasse in the GC.

Lasse Bøchman:
I'm very proud of my 3rd in the overall. Of course I had hoped to win a stage but it was a very strong field and it was bit of a bummer loosing 2nd on the last stage - to bad Greipel couldn't take the last stage as well
I'm extremely proud that the management have trusted me enought o make me captain in one of our sponsor goals and have allowed me to design my whole season to do well in the Danish NC's ( ), Eneco () and Post Danmark Rundt (?)...
Next Race: Clásica San Sebastián
