Translation: Victory for the Locomotive!
“This one special for me. Obviously it is special for the team as well. We are all climbers, and knew we only had only one opportunity, so we had to take advantage of it as much as possible. We knew how hard the climb was. I’ve trained here. We studied the profile, the altitude, the road surface. It was a climb of one hour. I am very happy for myself, and for the team, because they collaborated to make this victory possible.”

“We had four strong guys who were able to attack, attack, attack the yellow jersey. We came away with the stage win and we are super happy about that and now we have one more chance tomorrow to take this thing home.”
-Tejay Van Gaarderen DS
