Fine time trial in a long time

“After a long time I´ve shown a really great time trial. Me and the sports manager Martinelli are definitely happy. We´ve been working on my time trial skills since the Trentino and now I got the most out of the hard work in training,” said the Astana´s captain. “I have really good feelings about today. I knew the time checks of my teammate Kangert who is the Estonian time trial champion and he excels at the race against the clock. The time of 11:02 made me quite happy but we can´t draw conclusions from it. We´ve covered 8km so far and we have another 3400km ahead of us, “Roman added.He  enjoyed the pleasant atmosphere in Denmark. “It is obvious that the Danes really love cycling but I couldn’t take in the nice atmosphere at the start because I was a bit stressed out. Ten minutes before I was supposed to get off the starting ramp the zipper on my racing suit broke and I had to change and re-pin the start number, luckily, we handled this situation ok.”
