August 5/13 14:22 pm - Tour of Elk Grove: Men Stages 2, 3 and Final GC
Posted by Editoress on 08/5/13
Second stage win in two days for Elia Viviani and the general classification in addition. The Tour of Elk Grove finished in best way for the Italian sprinter and for Cannondale Pro Cycling. After the success in the second stage Viviani made a double and took the sprint of the third and last stage (121 km in 12 laps in Elk Grove Village) leaving behind Canadian Anderson and American Huff. Thanks to this victory, Viviani won also the general classification of the race with 6" on Anderson and 9" on Murphy.
"Everything went perfectly" said Viviani. "My teammates were again amazing. We controlled the race to avoid any surprises in the finale. I knew I could be competitive and we did not want to lose the chance to win both the stage and the classification. We did a perfect teamwork. For my part, these results are the signal I wanted to face next, important races. I expect to achieve the results that I searched in the first part of the season. I feel I have broken through and the support of the team make me confident. I'll look forward to do my best in all the next races".
