Good news of today – I didn’t crash

“Only Zeits went down but luckily for him, he didn’t get hurt and now he is all right. The most important thing is that we didn’t get tangled into any crash since there were many of them and some riders are really battered. When Gesink fell I had a narrow escape, though. I managed to avoid it at the last moment. The strong wind was blowing throughout the stage and for this reason, the pack was quite restless, plus the narrow roads and dangerous finish didn’t make the life easier for us. I believe that the route of the tomorrow´s longest stage of this year´s Tour will follow better roads and there will be fewer crashes. The stage should end in a bunch sprint so we will see what happens,” Roman said after the stage.Stage 5 (Carhaix – Cap Fréhel, 158km): 1st Mark Cavendish (GBr/HTC-Highroad) 3:38:32, 2nd Philippe Gilbert (Bel/Lotto), 3rd José Joaquín Rojas (Spa/Movistar), 4th Tony Gallopin (Fra/Cofidis), 5th Geraint Thomas (GBr/Sky), 6th Andre Greipel (Ger(Lotto), … 16th Roman Kreuziger (Cze/Astana).Overall: 1st Thor Hushovd (Nor/Garmin-Cervélo) 17:36:57, 2nd Cadel Evans (Aus/BMC) +1, 3rd F.
