Race of the Minuteman was the first tour of the team. The goal was to win one of the sprinting stages. The second stage of the tour, Rogerios Merlo finished second, it was a sprint race with a lot of hills, so his good spot was a bit of a surprise. In one of the mountain stages, lead out Carlos Franca crashed and was injured for the rest of the tour. He tried to help Merlo in the final stage, but it didn't result in a podium place. This was also because of the off days of Oleh Huml and Meint Boogerd. With a first or second place we could have won the SC, but Merlo finished 4th. It was a nice experience to do the tour and because of the two sprinting stages the team is promoted to division 3. It is not realistic at the moment, that the team will stay in division 3, but we hope to stay a stable division 4 team for the rest of the season.

Congrats on the success in the tour. You have a good looking sprint team and I think you will be able to stay in div 3.
You can have my spot in div 3 as my team is sinking fast. :) Good luck.
