“This is all I wished – the win and quite a lot of time on the other GC riders. I knew I was ready for the Giro but I wasn't sure I'd win today. The course was hard but absolutely perfect for me.”share this photo

2nd Rohan DENNIS (AUS/BMC RACING) + 2s. "It was a technical course. It was hard to get a rhythm and it was challenging. I would have liked the roads to be a bit smoother but you can't have everything. I did everything I could and the only way I can judge how I rode is my position at the end of the day. I was pretty relaxed until the last half an hour of the race. I knew Tom was going to be the big rival today and he proved that by taking the win. There were a few other riders that I was surprised about. There was nothing I could have done better today. I was just beaten by the better guy."share this photo
