@ Sutty68 - Thanks a lot, everything was happening there, Alien UFO's, Godzilla and ninja's fighting to name a few. But the biggest highlight was of course Pablo!
@JesleyH - That's true, didn't see Pablo doing much in the race, but it was a weakened field and he looks in great form.

STAGE 4: Sultan Qaboos - Jabal Al Akhdar 155 KM's
Stage Favourites:
***Sicard(KAT) **Ellisonde(VFE) *Mollema(KAT)
This is a stage which does not suit our team, ending on the steep 'Green Mountain', we shall certainly try to get into the early breaks.
The start to this stage was epic. Many potential GC riders (Mollema, Faiers, Sutherland, De la Fuente and Serpa) attacked looking to get into the early break.
Eventually a seven man break did manage to pull away, it included Mollema and our very own Bazayev.
The break never got much leeway and with 50 kilometres to go Farnese Vini really started drilling the peloton along, that didn't stop the leader Vissers putting in multiple attacks. With 5 kilometres to go everyone reaches the final climb. Brutt and Vissers attack and go nowhere. Then Herrada(EUS) and Torkcler(AST) put in a more promising attack they are joined by five riders including Ellisonde and Padilla.
Herrada, Torckler and Villegas(AVA) pull away from the rest of the fractured peloton and will contest the victory.
Villegas takes the win and the leader's jersey, he will do well to maintain the lead over Herrada after the next stage's TT though. It was a good experience for our team today, Bazayev was our best finisher but of no great result.

STAGE 5: Al Jissah - Al Jissah 19 KM's
Stage Favourites:
***Kritskiy (KAT) **Craddock(DTS) *Meyer(DTS)
The TT is here, we had a few hopes TT specialist Ghyllebert might do something.
Out TT man Ghyllebert set off and did set the fastest time for a while despite not being on a great day. Stage favourite Meyer, despite not shining at the first checkpoint at the hilltop, put ground into everyone in the remaining checkpoints and was fastest for much of the stage.
But when ultra TT specialist Kritskiy set off and went fastest at the first checkpoint, Meyer must have known who would win the stage. Young rider Craddock was 3 seconds down at the first checkpoint, 2 seconds down at the second, but failed to make up any more time.
Many people had to think Herrada would surely take the red leader jersey from Villegas. But they must have been shocked when Villegas was just 2 seconds down at the first checkpoint, compared to around '20 that Herrada was in arrears. In the remainder of the course which was flatter Herrada would pull time back on Villegas bit by bit. But not enough, Villegas puts in the TT of his life and maintains the lead in GC.

STAGE 6: Qurayyat - Mattrah Seafront 157 KM's
Stage favourites:
***Colbrelli(KAT) **Zabel(SAS) *Cardoso(SAS)
This was the last stage in Oman. We looked to build on the 3 top 10 finishes, but it would be difficult with many teams looking to do well.
I was very pleased with the effort of Sulimani, who was beginning to suffer, who managed to make it into the nine man break. Once again the break were never given any hope as the sprinter teams were dominant.
Into the final, SAS had 2 cards to play. Zabel launched his sprint from a ways out. But he couldn't sustain it as Modolo of WIT, who were under the radar, came flying past but Cardoso was coming up even faster. Modolo managed to hold on for the win. Kupeshov continued to suffer and couldn't even break the top 20. C.S.Long was very impressive for us in Oman and finishes quite comparably high at 26th.

Today the team arrived in Langkawi, albeit a few days before the racing started. Me and the three coaches were here with 8 of our riders early so we could set about building morale within the team.
We all set off for the Kilim Karst Geoforest Park. We split up into 6 teams of 2 men, each team had nothing but some food supplies and a map. Each team would set off in a different direction according to the map. All the routes lead to one exact location, a small house at the end of the forest. It was expected that at a decent pace, it should take 2:30 to 3 hours to reach the destination. We all set off in our teams in different directions wishing each other luck, no doubt each team really wishing themselves more luck than the others!
After originally being confused me and Gorik Gardeyn found ourselves to be making good time. We saw the small house. We entered, no one was there, had we won? We looked at the clock it was 2 hours and 27 minutes since we had last laid eyes on a clock. I ventured into the only other room into the house.
"####" I said. It turns out O'Brien and Criel were already there and nearly made me jump out of my skin. How did they beat us....bas###ds! From then on the rest of the teams gradually came to the house. Three hours were up and everyone was in the house apart from Al Mowaled and Al Zaid. The door slowly opened.
It was Mahdi Al Mowaled, but there was no Al Zaid, where was Abdulatif? Mahdi, was jumpy on edge, he said that about one hour ago they were in the forest when Abdulatif said he saw a strange animal and he followed it, without the map. Mahdi said he waited in the same spot for about 30 minutes but nothing. There was no sign of Abdulatif and eventually made his way here to the house.
####, I thought. Not just because the race was starting in a few days but because Abdulatif was lost. We all ventured into the forest for 3 hours, not straying too far from the house, thinking Abdulatif was playing a prank on us, it became pretty clear pretty quickly this was no joke.
At 9:00 local time, we phoned the local police as a precaution. We all went to sleep in the hotel that night not knowing where on earth Abdulatif was or if he was even alive.......
TO BE CONTINUED....

I am not going to lie the whole team is upset, no doubt it will be an effort just to get on the bike at the start of a stage.
STAGE 1: Dataran Lang - Kuah 93 KM's
Stage Favourites:
***Kummer(SAS) **Eskov(KAT) *Kristoff(KAT)
Plenty of riders attacked in this criterium. The teams Oasis and Bretagne were the ones who would control the peloton today, shutting down many attacks. Al Mowaled, despite being glum, did a good protecting our sprinter Kupeshov in the first half of the stage.
Although it was just a short stage many riders did suffer, Saez (Avianca) was dropped by the break a ways out, a bad day for him, later he would crash.
But a sprint was always inevitable with strong spinter teams such as Katusha, SES Astra and Oasis present. For us Nateghi was aiming to lead out Kupeshov.
But Zekina (Panathinaikos) who was in the break needlessly blocks Kupeshov so he has to choose a different wheel to follow, Kupeshov does well to make the top 10, although worringly gets past by Cappechi. The win on the day went to Belletti, Katusha showing they are big fish in a small pond.

We all got back to the hotel. Night swiftly came when at around 8:30 local time the doorbell sounded.
I rushed to the front door with the rest of the guys behind me. I snapped the door open ...THERE HE WAS. It was Abdulatif.
He looked terrible, he was missing his shirt, his looked weary and his beard was all matted but he was alive, presumably after living off the forest for the last 3 days 12 hours.
After he got cleaned up he was in good spirits. He told us what had happened the last few days, he said he was not good with directions to survive he said he had eaten berries he had found in abundance in the forest. Eventually he found his way to the road and hoboed his way back to the hotel.
The team was relieved. Now we could focus all our efforts on the REAL tour of Langkawi!

STAGE 2: Kangar - Butterworth 173 KM's
Stage Favourites:
***Kummer(SAS) **Appollonio(LAM) *Belletti(KAT)
With Abdulatif found the team has a new lease of life, team orders at the start of the day concerned one thing...breakaways.
There were plenty of early attacks, our riders were always involed in the early attacks, prominent was Al Mowaled.
Eventually a 9 man break got away, we managed to get Martinez in the break which also notably included Barry, Di Luca and Rocchetti.
Martinez would take the only KOM sprints on offer and will wear that jersey tomorrow, leading one point over Barry.
But today was another stage for the sprinters, being mostly downhill. From about 60 kilometres to go Katusha and SES Astra really started chasing, Martinez suffering out front missed a few turns on the front.
Inside the last 10 kilometres and there was a decent sized crash down in the peloton including potential GC winner Quintana(BSC), once again all our riders are unscathed but Lastras does get held up.
The break are caught with 5 KM's to go, Kupeshov has been well placed on Appollonio's wheel by Criel and Nateghi is also going for the sprint.
The winner today was Blot (Oasis) a relatively unknown rider in his first professional season, he may not be the fastest on paper but it was an immaculately timed sprint to fox the bigger sprinters. Our best finisher was Nateghi, I wonder if the team should be supporting him rather than Kupeshov...hmmmm.

@ Pfan I know, fancy getting lost in the jungle! But we are stuck with him, being Qatari and all.

STAGE 3: Taiping - Sitawan 125 KM's
Stage Favourites:
***Kummer(SAS) **Belletti(KAT) *Appollonio(LAM)
Another short flat stage, with a sprint on the cards. Little happened for our team in the early part, apart from the occasional odd glimpse of KOM jersey wearer Martinez.
An 11 man break formed, Kinder(Dukla) also tried to bridge the gap but failed and was humorously riding in no man's land for much of the stage.
With 16 KM's to go the break had 1:20 when Ryan Anderson (Dukla) attacked. For us Lastras was on a good day and no doubt would have followed the attack if he wasn't blocked in by a number of riders, Anderson's attack didn't last long.
With 10 KM's to go, one man had fell back from the break, the break were holding well with a mostly downhill finish at 1:00.
With 6 KM's to go the break are riding well and have over 50 seconds, they could do it.
The break would hold on. Bone (Panathinaikos) was looking good but really faded with 100 meters to go and was passed. Strong puncheur Pion takes the lead, but then comes Di Marchi (Lampre) who will take the victory in the blanket finish.
Di Marchi will take the GC lead as the peloton finish 35 seconds back. Our best finisher was Nateghi, Kupeshov was suffering a lot and was in no shape to contest the sprint. We were left scratching our heads after missing the break.
