The Quick.Step-Innergetic team has continued its winning ways after its 1-2 finish in Hamburg last Sunday. Today in Mechelen, Rik Verbrugghe and Servais Knaven finished first and third in the prologue of the Eneco Tour, a 5.7 km time trial. Splitting the pair was Carlos Barredo (Liberty Seguros), who had a good ride to finish just 1.35 seconds off Verbrugghe's winning time of 6'45.11.

Verbrugghe was a little fortunate that he started in the first half of the field of 184 riders, as the bigger names had to contend with wet conditions. "You have to have some luck, of course," admitted Verbrugghe. "But my time was pretty sharp."

The Belgian, who has had a fairly quiet year so far, said that he was very satisfied with his result. "I'm really happy with my result today - both for the team and myself. At the beginning of the season I worked a lot in order to demonstrate not only to myself but also to those that had faith in me that I was still a winning athlete. I haven't been a protagonist in my races - well, that is the ones in the second half of the classics season - but I still didn't give in. I did a lot of training while the Tour de France was on, training that didn't take me far away from my family, and I stayed relaxed."

Verbrugghe concluded by saying that he was unsure about defending the red leader's jersey. "There will be dangerous days to lose the jersey," he commented. "It depends in a lot of factors. Of course I can ride a good classement, certainly during the stages in the Ardennes and in the mini-Amstel Gold Race that's coming up."

Tomorrow's first stage of the Benelux Tour is from Geel (Belgium) to Mierlo (Netherlands), over a fairly flat course that should see the sprinters in action at the finish.
