On Country Roads TA13
I know some people who watch cycling on television more as a travelogue than as a sporting event. This race from sea to sea in the early spring certain has its share of geographic beauty, although I don't think this quartet had much energy left for enjoying the view. By this point in the stage, the peloton had peg Adrian Honkisz (CCC Sprandi), Domingos Goncalves (Caja Rural), Davide Villella (Cannondale), and Giorgio Cecchinel (Androni Giocattoli) at a manageable 3 minutes. With 45 kilometer left of the 176 kilometer stage, there was plenty of time to reel the escapees back into the peloton.
