Klostergaard satisfied with third in Paris-Tours
Best pro result for Danish veteran
168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Kasper Klostergaard of168澳洲5最新开奖结果: Saxo Bank-SunGard had his biggest pro success on Sunday when he finished third in 168澳洲5最新开奖结果:Paris-Tours. “Of course I'm happy. It is the only result I have had in five year🐼s, so it's clear that I am satisfied," he said.
The 28-year-old was in the lead group when eventual winner Greg Van Avermaet (BMC) and Marco Marcato of Vacansoleil-DCM broke out of it on their way to the finish line. “I could not follow as Van Avermaet and Marcato rode away on the hill. It was enough to stay with the group,” he told the Ritzau news agency.
It soon became ꦜclear that the two escapees would stay away until the end, and that the third-placed rider would come out of the chasing group. The Dane found himself at a disadvantage, with at least one renowned sprinter also in the mix.
He planned to attack in the final two kilometers “because I can't beat Stuart O'Grady in a sprint,” he said, “and so I found the torque. I had to find somewhere to🅰 move, and it worke♏d out as I had planned.”
Klostergaard now has one more race this season, the168澳洲5最新开奖结果: Herald Sun Tour in Aꦏustralia. “It's a shame that it's the season's last race. I hope I can do ൩well.” Otherwise, he will just wait out the winter and hope for his first pro victory in 2012.
