Nikolaj Nørgård has what it takes


  Even though several riders tried to break away, no one managed to keep it going in Arrecife - Femés. The strongest riders in the peloton stayed together in the leading group. The finishing climb became a secretion of riders, until Nikolaj Nørgård (Bensworld) and Harry Fjeld (team oskar L hansen) were alone in the front. As it looked as they were heading for a sprint on the top, Harry Fjeld suddenly could follow Nikolaj Nørgård who climbed the final kilometre alone. The audience cheered as Nikolaj Nørgård crossed the line with his arms raised high. Harry Fjeld came in a little later as second. The third place were terminated by a group of 4 who sprinted a long. Klas Møller was fastest in the group, and safely took the third place.
Today's stage fit well for me - I simply had to try my luck. And see what happened?, said a smiling Nikolaj Nørgård. The winner had no other comments, he quickly went to the team bus in order to celebrate the win.
Ben C, manager of Bensworld, was happy with the result: The whole team did well today. Everything turned out as we hoped, and luckily, Nikolaj Nørgård was the strongest rider out there today. The proud manager didn't hide that he was satisfied with Nikolaj Nørgård's result. Nikolaj Nørgård did well. No one deserved the victory more than him. He put his focus on this stage long ago, and he kept his motivation high. I'm happy for him and the team, said Ben C.
