The hardest stage of the Tour de l'Avenir has been won by Olympic champion Bradley Wiggins in a fabulous 1-2 with his American teammate Saul Raisin, both riding for French outfit Crédit Agricole. Smiling Dane Lars Ytting Bak kept the yellow jersey, probably for good with only two days to go. Second placed on GC Kai Reus (Rabobank), crashed on the descent of the second climb, and although he got back to the bunch, he pulled out later on the Col d'Aulac.

Wiggins attacked on the first of the seven climbs of the day after only 12 kilometres. "I knew I was going good," he explained. "I just went hard when we hit the first climb and I put pressure on Saul. I didn't think of the win until we were left with the three of us in front. The green jersey Jesus Del Nero was the right man to have with us. When we got five minutes lead at one point, I believed we could make it."

The break even reached 7'25 advantage and Raisin became the virtual yellow jersey for a little while, as did the Kazakh rider Assan Bazayev, who was the strongest member of five man group in between the break and the bunch, together with Frenchmen Arnaud Lesvenan (French national team), Carl Naibo (Bretagne-Jean Floc'h), Maxime Médérel (Auber 93) and Emilien-Benoît Bergès (RAGT).

CSC rode steadily at the front of the bunch. Despite the loss of time trial winner Christian Müller due to diarrhoea the day before, they always kept the situation under control. They caught Bazayev in the last climb, the Pas de Peyrol, whose summit was located 40km away from the finishing line in Aurillac. For a few minutes, Bak lost contact when three riders attacked.

One of them was Belgian hope Maxime Monfort, who is also a qualified journalist. He described the scene: "I wasn't feeling very good at the beginning of the climb but I had better sensations later. Then I followed the Croatian champion [Matija Kvasina of Perutnina Ptuj] who, I think, is the stronger climber in this Tour de l'Avenir. There was an interesting coup to play as we started descending quickly but Bak got back on with Andy Schleck. I believed the yellow jersey is strongly attached to his shoulders and his team is also strong enough to keep the lead. As for myself, I hope to make the top three because there will be some more opportunities in the final two stages."

Kvasina may be the strongest climber but Raisin is another impressive one and he took the polka dot jersey over from Rémi Di Gregorio. "I had a great day," the young man from Dalton, Georgia, commented. "It was our plan to attack this morning but maybe not since so early into the stage." Wiggins added: "I never got bored because it was such a short stage."

The Brit has been a pro for four years now and this is the first time he has won a road race since he joined Française des Jeux in 2002. He was known for his triumphs on the track as a World and Olympic champion, also for winning some time trials or coming close. "I was a bit disappointed to be only second in the time trial here," he said. "But my form is getting better and better. It's a shame that the time trial isn't tomorrow."

There will be another one for Wiggo soon: the World Championship. "This is the big goal for my end of season," he concluded.
