9th Telekom Malaysia Le Tour de Langkawi - 2.2
Malaysia, February 6-15, 2004
Stage 10 - February 15: Kuala Lumpur Criterium - Dataran Merdeka, 80.4 km
A day for the lead-out men: Bongiorno triumphs in KL
Gonzalez wins, but bad luck sees reshuffling among top ten
By Anthony Tan in Kuala Lumpur

With Panaria's main sprinter Graeme Brown out of action due to a problem with his Achilles tendon, Gordon Fraser (Health Net) not feeling his best and Luciano Pagliarini (Lampre) also having an off day, it was a day for lead-out men of each of the sprinters' teams to shine. In a 65 kilometre an hour bunch gallop to the line, it was Ruben Bongiorno (his surname meaning good day or good morning) who said good day and good bye to the LTdL for another year in the best possible fashion, outsprinting Greg Henderson (Health Net) and Matteo Carrara (Lampre) to repeat his victory on the same stage last year.
"I was led out very well by [Brett] Lancaster to about 150 metres before I took over from him, and the sprint worked perfectly to plan," said a smiling Bongiorno to Cyclingnews.
Asked about Health Net's decision to give their lead-out man Greg Henderson a shot at glory today, Gordon Fraser decided that with the points jersey in the bag and him not feeling so good, he was happy to give Henderson the opportunity: "The guys were asking me early in the stage how I was feeling, and quite honestly, I wasn't feeling very good. I wanted to repay Greg [Henderson] for his work this week, and he said he was feeling good, so it was no problem with the jersey wrapped up," said Fraser, who led the points competition from day three and finished with a 35 point buffer over Gert Vanderaerden (Mr Bookmaker-Palmans-Collstrop) on 70 points.
Thanks to the support of his team-mates, race leader Freddy Gonzalez (Colombia Selle-Italia) finished safely in the front group, and for seemingly the first time this week, a smile emerged from little Freddy's face as the pressure valve released and Gonzalez was declared the overall winner of the 2004 Tour de Langkawi.
"It is a very important victory for me, and I think this is the biggest victory of my career," said Gonzalez to Cyclingnews. "I still hope to race for a long time yet to achieve even more, and my biggest target this year will be the Giro d'Italia."
While today gave those riders not normally in the limelight a shot at glory, the day was not without incident. Fifth-best rider at the start of the day David George (Barloworld) punctured on the final lap, and despite a massive effort by team-mate Sean Sullivan to bridge back the tail end of the peloton, George finished 20 seconds behind Bongiorno to slip three places on the general classification to eventually finish eighth. Roland Green (Canada) and best Asian rider Ghader Mizbani also finished 21 and 25 seconds behind the first group of 55 riders, which saw Green and Mizbani drop one place to finish 10th and 11th overall respectively. Despite dropping a place to finish outside the top 10, Mizbani (Iran) said he was very happy to have defended his title in the competition, and is awaiting confirmation to ride for a professional team based in Asia.
How it unfolded

With third (Dave Bruylandts, Chocolade Jacques-Wincor) and fourth-placed overall (Tiaan Kannemeyer, Team Barloworld) and fifth (David George, Team Barloworld) and sixth-placed overall (Nicholas White, South Africa) lying just one second apart on general classification, today's race in downtown Kuala Lumpur was bound to be a nervous 80.4 kilometres, with time bonuses and changes in the top 10 on overall classification up for grabs
Alessandro Cortinovis (Lampre) was first to hit out hard on the second of 12 laps, with Sean Sullivan (Barloworld) and Hector Guerra Garcia (Relax Bodysol) going straight after him. The trio worked well in team time trial formation, Stage 4 winner Sullivan doing double the work of Cortinovis and Guerra Garcia, but a vigilant peloton never let the gap grow to more than 40 seconds. Team Ireland's David McCann and Peter Wedge of Canada attempted to bridge across on lap 5, but the horsepower in the lead group was too great, with both rejoining the peloton two laps later.
On lap 7, disaster struck the lead group when Sullivan punctured, but Cortinovis and Guerra Garcia kept on with the job, and with Japanese champion Shinichi Fukushima and Eric Wohlberg (Canada) bridging the gap two laps later, the quartet were in with a chance, albeit a slim one.
However, with their advantage never more than a minute, the escape was doomed. As Gordon Fraser's loyal lead-out men once again came to the fore with around two laps to go, aided by Lampre and Panaria-Margres shortly after, it was all back together again as the bell was rung to signal one lap to go. With points leader Gord Fraser (Health Net/Maxxis) doing some of the pace-setting, it became clear the Fraser wanted to return the favour to his lead-out man Greg Henderson, hoping to set up the sprint for the New Zealander, but as riders began shooting off the front in the final kilometre, Health Net/Maxxis lost their authority at the head of the peloton.
Coming into the final 300 metres, Stage 3 winner Brett Lancaster (Ceramiche Panaria-Margres) was towing not his friend Graeme Brown who chose not to start with an inflamed Achilles, but Ruben Bongiorno. With 150 to go, the chocolate-skinned Argentinian swung off his team-mate's wheel and kicked like a mule, holding off Henderson (Health Net/Maxxis) and Matteo Carrara (Lampre) to repeat his victory in KL one year ago.
Said Fraser about their team tactics after the stage: "Pulling off the whole gap off with the sprint might work in America where it is a lot more technical, whereas today, the road was it was a little too wide to really pull that off. We tried - we had a little plan that I'd gap them off, but unfortunately as I gapped them off, Panaria just managed to squeeze through. So it was good timing from them, but just a little late from us. We could have done it better."
