Lutsenko wins first edition of Clásica Jaén Paraiso
That was a great course....all the gravel sections were on uphills and they were pretty chunky. Hope to see more big names coming next year.

Yes indeed. Is there any recap coverage CK? Haven’t searched yet.
So many COVID positives from Valencia: Nibali Valverde, Hart, Kelderman etc. Lots of race plans being upended. |

And while things are falling apart in Spain, life is going on just like it should in Portugal. Q-S again. Jakobsen pulling off a Cavendish-like improve after losing the Q-S train.
And all this in Q-S classic fashion. Lose #1. Everyone steps up and little is lost. (Tim Declerrq. CN says stomach bug. I didn't know anything could take him down.) |

The pulls Evenepoel have been taking are so impressive….he knocks out between 1/2K to a full K and just strings things out.
The only thing that sucks for Q-S is that he is so damn small, there can’t be much of a draft behind him…LOL. |

UAE has had a couple of good stages....the other day, Cav showed everyone a clean pair of heels and nabbed an impressive stage win. Say what you want about the quality of the sprinters last July, the best guys were there on Monday and he won decisively. And he also went from a LONG way out.
Summit finish today and Ganna damn near took the jersey....hung on for grim death but nmissed the jersey by 2". At first I thought it was some "hometown officiating", but once you saw the overhead shot, the gaps were clearly there.

| Yes good sprint field at UAE. Philipsen the most consistent so far but great to see Cav still bringing it. |
