What a surprise! A ITT victory of Tirlea Congratulations Helder. Tomorrow you'll have a serious contender in Bienert.

I gave my orders for the whole week yesterday Ab (good call btw ) - My goals are clear : two podiums at least AND podium in GC of the small tour this week - The ITT I considered as 'not important' THanks, next season Tirlea isn't here so you can consider important again About tomorrow, I know there will be good riders and maybe I put much pressure on Stroh, lets hope he can deal well. I had a set-back because my leader Xavier got and injurie during the week update so I now use a leader that cannot allow for now 1 helper so a flat or a fall could make an impact.

Congratz to ElGringo with the good result today. Of course Tirlea is the TT-god in our division, so not surprising but well deserved. Tomorrow is the fight in between Bienert and Stroh? Gommers maybe? I bring 30-year old Gijsbert Van Nes. He is developing quite nicely on flat recently, so the first part of the race he should be able to keep up with the big guns. Top 5 would be excellent.

Nice one Helder! As you expected, Stroh was simply too good. I hoped to be able to stay with him on the flat so I could beat him on the mountain parts. But unfortunately not.
Now Gommers can take a rest and prepare for next season.

Congratz Helder!!!! Stroh was way too strong on the hills... Bienert took second place (was a nice battle with gommers in the end!!!) - Goal 1 of three this week is in for my team...

Yes, Stroh was from a different planet. However quite happy that Van Nes seems to become ready to compete next season -if the newly promoted teams will not too strongly accommodated with good quality- older generation riders. It starts to be time to scout the performances of the numbers 1 and 2 of the 4th divisions.

CSC is having a strong team existing mainly out of 27-33 year olds. Seems a team that is getting top quality in a few seasons time. I hope he will not relegate to 3:2. Having a quick look at the riders in the different 4th divisions. I think 4:1 and 4:4 are the most competitive. Bolt thrower and Groenenhoek look like candidates to promote straight to second division. We will see, with a bit of luck we will not have to face all three of them next season.

Thanks guys. Really happy with this result and the money that comes with it. Was a good result in our division, but if there were in div 1 or in div2 would be differente. Good luck for Toscana

YES... Great (close) Victory by Pietrok... But final GC victory will be very difficult (Lorens looks like the GC favorite...) - Nevertheless : very happy AND my goals for this week are done if Pietrok can hold Podium in the GC...

Stage of tomorrow has only late attacks, so the differences won't be high. Probably Lorens will pass Pietrok, but I think he will be the only one.
