Rafaello Buey's first victory: Ekeren - Hoevenen


  Scilian had the race under control as Ekeren - Hoevenen was about to be terminated in a tough sprint. The supporting riders of Rafaello Buey made the job easy for him, and he managed to claim the victory safely. He was hardly threatened by his competitors, Tycho Smith, second, and Stane Jogan, third.
As we got close to the finishing line, I suddeny realized I had my chance today said a surprised winner. When the other sprinters launched the sprint, I just followed along, and I even managed pass them in the end.
It's good to see Rafaello Buey fulfilling his ambitions winning this stage. He deserves the victory more than anyone else, said the proud manager of Scilian, Hoijko, and continued: The team was a good support for him (Rafaello Buey) today, and he clearly proved his worth in sprint.
