March 27/14 17:58 pm - Volta Ciclista a Catalunya: Stage 4


Posted by Editoress on 03/27/14
 

BMC Racing Team's Tejay van Garderen sprinted past Romain Bardet (AG2R La Mondiale) around the final turn of today's mountain-top finish to win the fourth stage at Volta a Catalunya.

Van Garderen attacked out of a select group that included the race favorites in the closing kilometres of the 166.4-kilometre race that started in bright sunshine but finished in cold, fog and snow. "I let the other guys do a couple little attacks first so they could kind of wear each other out," van Garderen said. "I think I got a little lucky and I think the cold might have helped me a little bit. I think I can cope with it a bit better than some of those guys who are 60 kilos. This is my first WorldTour victory and to be up there against all the names like (Alberto) Contador, (Chris) Froome and Purito (Joaquim Rodriguez) – grand tour winners – is a huge honor." Bardet was the only rider who could follow van Garderen's move and the pair arrived at the finish three seconds ahead of Contador. Rodriguez, the race leader, finished one second later in fourth. Van Garderen's victory was his first of the season.
