20,000 spectators for the birth of a champion: Dries Devenyns
By Jean-François Quénet in Dinan
|
The local continental team of Bretagne-Jean Floc'h has lost its most important home race one year after dominating it with Stéphane Pétilleau. It was due to their arrogant attitude towards the international field that they described as at "a low level", a comment proven totally wrong. They also accumulated a few tactical mistakes but concluded with "being happy to finish second behind a future champion". And that sounds absolutely right from directeur sportif Philippe Dalibard!
We'll hear again from Dries Devenyns. On Thursday, he'll probably sign his first two year pro contract with Quick.Step. Aged 22, he only joined Beveren 2000 this year after completing his studies at university. "I started racing when I was 15, it's quite late in Belgium," he said. "My older brother was a cyclist, he's 25 now, and my younger brother who is 20 rides as well. But it wasn't a cycling family before."
Dries has no memory of what happened almost in front of his house in Kluisbergen when Claudy Criquièlion and Steve Bauer crashed and let Maurizio Fondriest win the world championship in 1988. He knows all about that story and can focus on the next championship due to be held on the same circuit of Renaix: the Belgian national championship for professionals next year.

With the Tour de Bretagne, he has opened his international record book. "I came here with no expectations," he explained. "After I won one stage and the time trial, my team has driven me and given me confidence until this happy end. I've raced well, yes, but I'm not a true leader yet, I was riding too far inside the peloton."
Devenyns was amazed to see how much support he got from the 20,000 people who gathered on the pavé streets of Dinan.
How it unfolded
Early in the stage, a breakaway of 12 riders took shape with Alex Coutts (DFL-Cyclingnews), Bjorn Hoeben (Procomm-Van Hemert), Dimitri Champion (Vendée U), David Burgy (SCO Dijon), Evan Oliphant and Dale Appleby (Recycling.co.uk), Nikolaï Troussov (Tinkoff), Nico Keinath (Team Aguti), Fabrice Jeandesbosz and Mickaël Chérel (Côtes d'Armor-Maître Jacques), Nicolas Rousseau (UC Châteauroux) and John-Lee Augustyn (Konica-Minolta). They managed to create a maximum difference of 2 minutes while Beveren 2000 and VC Roubaix controlled the pace of the peloton. Troussov was the most generous rider in the front and for a while the virtual leader of the race. After 90 kilometres, the Bretagne-Jean Floc'h team tried to launch some attacks but Dries Devenyns and his teammates came across every time.

From the front group, Jeandesbosz went by himself, he was joined by his teammate Chérel and time trial French U23 champion Champion. A few counter-attacks were organized before reaching the final circuit of Dinan, on which Jeandesbosz crashed and only Olivier Grammaire (SCO Dijon) was able to resist the return of the riders competing for positions on GC. His partner Jérémie Dérangère secured a nice 1-2 for the Lapierre sponsored team from Burgundy and Peter Velits (Konica-Minolta) finished third, giving confirmation that he is the other star for the future in addition to Devenyns, who had no problem keeping his lead till the end.
