The weather played a big role of today?s race. The bike got a big wash as well as the riders. The break away didn?t seem to be effected by the weather though: they kept increasing the lead. No one in the peloton took the initiative to catch up the break away due to the rainy weather.
In the break away the riders cooperated perfectly and they kept a good distance to the peloton the entire race. With a few kilometres to go, the break away ended in a sprint. 100 metres to go, Wilfried Zdarsky launched the sprint, but both Benjamin Jarrett and Tarjei Teigen passed him in the sprint. Benjamin Jarrett ended up as winner, with Tarjei Teigen right behind him.
Benjamin Jarrett didn't hide his happiness for winning the stage. I have dreamed of this for long. My result today proves that hard training is worth it, said the cheerful winner, who yet has no current plans for the next race to strike at.
The stage couldn't turn out any better than this. Benjamin Jarrett did a perfect job today, said Chris Robinson, manager of PPVelo, after the race.
