Stage 1 - April 14: Teruel - Estación De Esqui De Valdelinares, 162.2 km

Menchov continues where he left off

After winning the Vuelta a Pais Vasco last week, the in-form Denis Menchov (Illes Balears-Banesto) simply continued where he left off by taking the first stage and leader's jersey in the Vuelta a Aragon. The stage was a difficult one, finishing on top of the Valdelinares ski station, a Cat. 1, 1430m climb. Menchov outsprinted a group of four to win, beating Giro d'Italia candidate Stefano Garzelli (Vini Caldirola), Leonardo Piepoli (Saunier Duval) and Koldo Gil (Liberty Seguros). Interestingly, Garzelli's main Giro rival Gilberto Simoni (Saeco) finished 72nd, nearly 22 minutes down.

The stage was aggressive from the start, with Toni Tauler (Illes Balears) the first rider to attack at kilometre 8. After 20 km, Tauler was caught by another 21 riders, which contained representatives from most of the major teams in the race.

José Gutierrez (Phonak) attacked the group with 17 km to go until the first sprint of the day at Gea de Albarracin (km 51), taking the points ahead of Cabello (Com.Valenciana-Kelme) and Francisco José Lara (Paternina). At this stage, the main peloton was 4'00 behind the 22 leaders, and after Gutierrez was caught a few kilometres later, the front group started to split.

On the Cat. 3 Puerto de Cabigordo (100 km), Cabello, Laguna (Relax), Zaballa (Saunier Duval) and Zandio (Illes Balears), with the remainder of the group at 0'40 and the peloton closing at 2'50. Illes Balears was leading the chase, despite having riders in the break, and it was clear that they had confidence in Menchov.

The breakaways were all caught at km 119, save for Cabello, who still led by 1'50. But with 20 km to go, he too was caught and the race began to take a different shape. On the Cat. 2 Puerto de San Rafael (km 148.6), Zaballa crossed first ahead of Masciarelli (Vini Caldirola) and Karpets (Illes Balears), clearly intent on the mountains jersey. However, despite establishing a small lead over the peloton, this break was caught on the final climb when Garzelli, Menchov, Ferrio (Paternina), Piepoli (Saunier Duval), Arreitunandia (Cafes Baques) and Gil (Liberty Seguros) attacked.

This group hung together until the final kilometres of the climb, when Menchov, Garzelli, Piepoli and Gil drew away from the rest and crossed the line as one group to contest the win, with Menchov proving superior to Garzelli.
