Elite ITT Championships

Team Chicky World's Michael Sandstod repeated his success of last year over 1996 Tour winner Bjarne Riis in the Danish National ITT Championships over 43.5 kms. By the halfway mark, Sandstod had caught Riis, who had started 2 minutes in front of him. Riis clearly indicated that he had no desire to go any harder and use up energy in this event, after he had been caught.

Kim Plesner Fredericksen, our Danish reporter says that Riis indicated later that he simply couldn't believe it when he saw the motorcycles go past him. He thought he had made a good start and when the MC's rode past him he said to himself: "What the f... are they doing here?", and then he discovered that Sandstod was just behind him...

Bo Hamburger confirmed his excellent form coming into the Tour de France next weekend and came in 4th to follow up on his good result in the Vuelta a Catalonya ITT where he was 18th.
