Stage 3 - February 21: Lagos - Lagos, 153.8km

Barbosa moves closer

Portuguese rider Candido Barbosa has triumphed in the third stage of the Volta ao Algarve, 154 km around Lagos. The L.A. Pecol sprinter beat Jacek Morajko (Antarte-Rota Moveis) and race leader Angel Edo (Milaneza-MSS) in the third bunch sprint in as many days. Edo kept his lead, but Barbosa, who was second yesterday, moved to within 7 seconds thanks to time bonuses.

The stage started at 10:45am without Lampre's Mariano Piccoli, leaving 104 riders in the race. With Edo leading and a comparatively flat stage on the menu, it was expected that Milaneza-MSS would control the race as they have done for the past two stages. Edo made his presence felt very early on in the stage, when he won the first Meta Volante sprint after 3.8 kilometres, beating Yon Bru (La Pecol) and Gustavo Veloso (Carvalhelhos/Boavista).

A small break containing Roberto Laiseka (Euskaltel-Euskadi) escaped in the lead up to the first climb at Bensafrim (km 18), with Laiseka finishing second on the climb behind Nuno Marta (Barbot-Torrié). Kelme-Costa Blanca then got to the front and neutralised the break.

Several more small breakaways followed over the next 40 km, but it wasn't until Ruben Oliveira (Antarte-Rota dos Moveis) attacked at around 60 km that someone was allowed to go clear. Oliveira increased his lead to 5'10 over the peloton by km 90, at which point the peloton began to pick up the tempo thanks to the Porta Ravessa-Tavira team.

Milaneza-MSS took over 20 km later, and were helped by Kelme-Costa Blanca to chase the break down. Oliveira was caught at km 125, which left another 30 km of racing before the expected sprint finish in Lagos. Towards the end of the stage, yesterday's winner Alberto Loddo (Lampre) abandoned, the only incident of note during this time.

The finish was led out by Milaneza-MSS, but they could not manage to get Edo across the line in first place. Instead it was Candido Barbosa who profited, in front of Morajko and Edo.

Tomorrow's stage is an individual time trial over 10.5 km between Guia and Albufeira.
