“Today’s stage was more difficult than we had expected. We rode full gas behind the breakaway with Iljo and Petr, and then pushed really hard on the last lap, where Bob did an incredible job to close the gap inside the final ten kilometers. Then Julian and Maxi brought me in a great position and all that I had to do was to finish it off with a well-timed sprint. I am happy and proud, it feels great to lead my home race in front of these amazing fans”, said Hodeg, who also holds the points classification and best young rider jerseys at the Tour Colombia, the fourth stage race the just 22 year old gets to lead, after Volta a Catalunya, Tour de Pologne and the Deutschland Tour. | share this photo |
