Stage 5 - March 5: Murcia-Murcia ITT, 12.9 km

Canada makes it two on the trot

Spanish ONCE rider, David Canada, finished off the tour of Murcia in fine style today, winning the final 12.9 kilometer time trial around the capital city. Canada averaged nearly 51 km/h in his ride, beating compatriot and teammate Santos Gonzalez by 25 seconds, and Latvian Raivis Belohvosciks (Lampre Daikin) by another three. US Postal's Tyler Hamilton showed some good early season time trialling form by finishing fourth, just behind Belohvosciks.

It was an unexpected victory for Canada, who had taken control of the race after yesterday's tough mountain stage, winning in a two-man break with Kelme's Javier Pascual Llorente. However, considering the strength of his team - ONCE won four out of five stages, and the teams classification, so it wasn't as big a surprise. Llorente finished second overall (he came 11th today) in the classification, as well as winning the Mountains jersey from Dave Bruylandts (Bel, Fram Frites). Portuguese rider, Pedro Lopes (L.A. Pecol) won the intermediate sprints (metas volantes) competition, while Alberto Elli (Ita, Telekom) won the points as well as finishing fourth overall.

The jersey had clearly given Canada the edge, as he posted the quickest intermediate time at 8:20 at 6 kilometers. Neither Elli nor Llorente were able to match Canada's speed at this point, posting 8:45 and 8:51 at the same point. Although he had the victory in the bag, he still went as hard as he could to beat Santos González' time, who was actually the first rider off. Third place overall, Jose Alberto Martinez (Spa, Euskaltel) had a solid ride as well, finishing fifth to take the final podium spot from Elli.

The Aragonese David Canada said afterwards that "For many this will be a surprising triumph, but my teammates know me and how I've been riding - it is something not out of the ordinary. In this team we won and we all we worked. I do not know if I was the one to win, but have taken advantage of the opportunity."

"The race is harder than it looks. It has been on from the first day, and the main rivals have been the Kelme team," he commented. For the time trial performance, he gave credit to Santos González, as he was the "guinea pig" for testing the new bikes that they were using.

"I honestly didn't count on this, to win here," said Canada. He will be 25 soon, and has been a pro with ONCE for 3 years. This is his first taste of success in the pro ranks, although he won the Vuelta's of Salamanca and Biscay as an amateur.
