Stage 2 - June 2: Sopelana - Tolosa , 181.5km

Jimenez in great solo

By Gabriella Ekström

Comunidad Valenciana rider Eladio Jimenez delivered a stunning performance when he won the second stage of the Euskal Bizikleta, a stage that he himself described as crazy. After winning the stage by 2'40 to second placed Aketza Peña of Euskaltel, Jimenez now leads the whole race with an equal advantage over Kaiku's Adrian Palomares and 2.44 ahead of Barloworld's strong man Stefano Cavallari.

How it unfolded

Just like yesterday, a break went early, and after Eladio Jimenez' initial break with David Plaza (Barloworld) was neutralized, a ten man breakaway with nine out of thirteen competing teams went away at the 43 kilometre mark. Luis Leon Sanchez (Liberty Seguros), Aketza Peña (Euskaltel), Eladio Jimenez (Comunidad Valenciana), Jose Maria Almagro (Relax-Fuenlabrada), Adrian Palomares (Kaiku), Stefano Cavallari and Vladimir Efimkin (Barloworld), Nicholas Crosbie (Agritubel), Mauro Santambrogio (LPR) and Jesus Del Nero (Orbea) were the most eager riders to get away, and despite the lack of the big pre-race favourites in the break, it was dangerous to say the least with Palomares 9th at 3 seconds before the start of the stage, and Cavallari 10th at 7 seconds. Santambrogio, Sanchez and Jimenez were found further down in the results at 26 seconds, and Peña skidded behind, 3.24 after yesterday's winner.

At first, most teams seemed satisfied with the situation, and the chase was left to Saunier Duval who had missed the break and were defending Joaquin Rodriguez' third placing on the GC. The break gained a maximum lead of ten minutes, and Saunier Duval seemed unable to control the gap. Yesterday's winning team Liberty Seguros admitted after the stage that it had been an impossible stage to control, and that they had played all they had on Sanchez in the lead.

However, as the break had struggled over three of the stage's seven categorized climbs, Sanchez was notably absent in the front group. Instead it was Peña, Cavallari and Jimenez who proved to be the strongest riders in the group. Back in the peloton, the Euskaltel team sat in a similar situation as Liberty Seguros, with the one difference being that Peña looked stronger than Sanchez. None of the two teams helped Saunier Duval at the front, and shortly after Jimenez attacked again, alone this time, Saunier Duval sat up, and the seconds started to tick away.

Jimenez who faced 40 kilometres alone after his attack admitted after the stage that he had felt super strong, and that a lot of riders had been drafting on him, hence the attack. Behind Jimenez, Peña and Cavallari bravely fought on, but their duo took a turn for the worse when Cavallari's team mate Efimkin caught up together with Almagro and Palomares. Peña stopped working the instant the Barloworld riders were caught, and despite the blue and white clad riders' efforts, the pace dropped without Peña.

Realizing this, Peña attacked with 25 to go, and gained time on Jimenez for a few kilometres before starting a negative trend. Meanwhile, Jimenez in the front looked very fresh, and had to be slowed down by his sports director Jose Labarta who already had the coming stages in his mind.

Jimenez could ride into Tolosa unthreatened, and starts tomorrow's brutal stage with an eight minute gap to the bigger favourites. A seemingly impossible gap for any rider to bridge, but Jimenez was far from saluting a total victory in advance, and said that yet another eight minute break could easily go away in this very special race.
