By David Hunter Orihuela – Xorret del Cati 141.3km It’s been a big week of racing, with stages in Dubai and Spain. Forget about the rest, this is the best stage of the week. It might even be one of the best of the year. The reason? Xorret de Cati and 4km at 11%! Greg Henderson…
By David Hunter Dubai – Burj Khalifa 137km Time for the final stage and the GC is delicately balanced. After some brilliant performances by Lobato, Nizzolo and Kittel, it’s the Trek man that leads the way. He has a 2 second gap to Lobato and a 6 second gap to Kittel. With 10, 6 and 4…
