Eneco Tour: GreenEdge hoping its luck improves
Crashes and wild weather made for a "crazy" day




The 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:opening day of the 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Eneco Tour was a brui🔯sing affair for with crashes 🌠and a late attack disrupting the team's ambitions of victory.
With strong winds and rain characterising the first half of the day, a crash in the closing kilometre to 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Matt Goss ended his chance𒁏s for victory on a forgettable daꦑy for the team.
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Aidis Kroupis and 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Leigh Howard were present in the first group in as the finishline was approaching along with 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Jens Keukeleire, but they lost each other in the run in to the final as Tom Dumoulin (Giant-Shimano) late surge for the stage win disrupted the sprint trains that had to come 🌺to the front.
"The guy🦩s did pretty well to beꦑ up there under the circumstances," sport director Matt Wilson said.
"We lost about half the team by the time the sprint ev🐲en came around. They just lost each other at the finish and that was it.
"No team was able to formulate a sprint🍌 train today, it was just too crazy. There were crashes at every corner into the final and with the rain and the wind it was pretty🌼 hectic."

"Both Damien [Howson] and Gossy [Matt Goss] are both hurt but nothing looks broken at this stage. We might go for a scan or two tonight but they look OK to start tomorrow," Wilso🌜n said.
Stage 2 on paper is a day for the sprinters, and Wilson is hopꦰing that the finale will be less stressful and that the team can get through unscathed.
"On paper it is a very similar stage to today," Wilson said. "The we𓆉ather looks very similar, but probably it is a little more sheltered and not quite as open where we are going tomorrow so I would expect at this stage a 𝓡more controlled and orderly finish.
"But who knows, it's very unpredictable up here."
