Stage 5 - September 5: Leignes-sur-Fontaine - Montmorillon ITT, 22 km
Bak in… yellow
By Jean-François Quénet in Montmorillon
There were two time trials in the Tour de l’Avenir today: one for the stage win, another one for the overall classification. The weather conditions were completely different in the early afternoon, when all the riders classified too far down on GC had their go, and later. But Team CSC won on both counts. Christian Müller rode 16 seconds faster than Bradley Wiggins and scored his second pro win, then stage 1 winner Lars Ytting Bak took fourth and kept 13 a seconds advantage on Dutch prodigy Kai Reus in third.
"I’m really happy," Bak said. "I had such good legs today. It’s unfortunate that I had to use the brakes so much at the end but it was the same for all the last 20 riders, so the weather hasn’t changed the face of the Tour de l’Avenir. I’ve crashed heaps of times this year, I didn’t want to take too many risks. I could see Mark Scanlon in front of me but I prefered to ride smart instead of risking a crash. From the first kilometre I knew I was going to do a super time."
His directeur sportif Scott Sunderland calculated that Bak was racing on the same level as Müller. If the rain hadn’t disturbed him, he might have competed for the stage win as well. Looking at CSC’s performance, both Wiggins and Reus may feel frustrated but there’s still a lot to be seen at this year’s Tour de l’Avenir with 5 days to go. The côte de Maupuy to be climbed twice on Tuesday before the stage finish in Guéret might create some surprises.
"It’s going to be tough in the last 5 days," Bak predicts. "We’re gonna work flat out for him," Müller added. He’s doing everything right and he’s a good captain." The German who has a track background from the team pursuit effort should be extremely helpful in front of bunch. He’s confident in Bak wrapping it all at the end. "But we can’t say it’s in the pocket," Sunderland said. "It’s the Tour de l’Avenir, with teams of six. It’s still open."
Their main competitors should be the Rabobank young guns. They are in an interesting position on GC with Reus second and William Walker fifth, only 1:12 down. "I’m quite happy with my time trial today," the Australian commented. "Although I’m still suffering since I got cramps in the breakaway when I ran third two days ago. My harmstring is painful now. But I should be OK in the next few days and I understand that the hills aren’t too hard for me on the course of the Tour de l’Avenir this year. I’m looking forward to the coming battles."
A more injured Aussie is Ben Johnson. His left knee hurts and he needed a medical treatment for riding the time trial. "This is definitely the right moment for such a problem," Johnson reckons. Like most of the up and coming riders, he had the Tour de l’Avenir as his main goal for the year since he signed his first pro contract with Agritubel, starting on May 1.
