JuanMotr - Glad you're taking the trouble of catching up! The Tour was a great experience  Your smell never let us down here!
krisa - If he keeps evolving like this, he'll get his shot to be among the great of history! But like Merckx or Coppi will be impossible, Stijn'll never climb well, unfortunately...
sutty68 - Thanks, he had great legs
rogvi97 - Things are sure looking up!

Welcome!
I haven't been able to post the last couple of days. But I'm sure you followed the race on television. Anyway, here are the final results from the Eneco Tour!
Eneco Tour - Stage 6
I got caught in a nasty crash but it fell under the 3 km rule, no time lost!
Result
| 1 | Peter Sagan | Liquigas-Cannondale | 5h09'36 | | 2 | Geraint Thomas | Sky Pro Cycling | s.t. | | 3 | Jürgen Roelandts | Lotto Belisol | s.t. | | 4 | Heinrich Haussler | Orica-GreenEDGE | s.t. | | 5 | Bobbie Traksel | Landbouwkrediet-Euphony | s.t. | | 6 | Daniele Bennati | Radioshack Nissan Trek | s.t. | | 7 | Mathieu Ladagnous | FDJ-BigMat | s.t. | | 8 | Tom Boonen | Omega Pharma-Quick-Step Cycling Team | s.t. | | 9 | Filippo Pozzato | Farnese Vini Selle Italia | s.t. | | 10 | Sebastian Langeveld | Orica-GreenEDGE | s.t. |
Eneco Tour - Stage 7
I'm already over 70 (extremely intense) race days and at my age it's getting to me. I'm a bit too young to handle a season so intense and long. I'm losing my power. Meanwhile, Degenkolb is building form and looks ready for the Vuelta!

Well, that's it! An amazing victory in a stage race! With a daring attack in the fourth stage, I managed to hold on all the way to the final time trial! After Fabian Cancellara in 2012, I win the Eneco Tour in 2013! Also a brilliant race for Jan Ghyselinck!
Here the flash interview after the final stage:
Interviewer: Stijn Van Gent, first off, congratulations on your impressive win.
Stijn Van Gent: Thanks, thanks a lot!
Interviewer: After an impressive and all-destroying attack in the fourth stage, you took the reins of this race. Was that the plan from the start?
Stijn Van Gent: We didn't really have a plan. In these races there are endless possibilities and it's impossible to predict what will happen. I thought it was the right moment and I turned out to be right! The team did the rest!
Interviewer: It's been an amazing season for you so far. How does this victory fit in?
Stijn Van Gent: Well, you could say it's the icing on the cake! I've enjoyed a injury-less season and I've been performing on the level for the entire season. I hope I can finish it in style in the Tour of Britain.
Interviewer: Okay, you can go to the podium, thank you very much!
Stijn Van Gent: Thanks!
Next up is the Dutch Food Valley Classic!
Stijn

I would've played the Dutch Food Classic this noon but my back's really out. I can't sit still on a chair for more than 10 minutes, laying down now with my laptop. Will try to do it tonight if I get a bit better. |

Dutch Food Valley Classic
Welcome to the Netherlands! An important race for the sponsors, no less. I'm here with one goal: succeed André Greipel.
We were definitely in luck today. Only two breakaway companions.
It was mostly up to us to control the breakaway. As winner of the Eneco Tour, I was the big favorite of the day.
Coming into the local round, the breakaway only had 2 minutes left.
It all came back together fairly soon, and Roy sought his chances on the flat roads of Veenendaal.
The roads were against him. We kept a visual on him and set up our lead-out.
Van Hummel knew a superday and launched me incredibly well, after correcting a miscalculation of the man before him.
And then it was up to me!
I felt the pressure from Haedo, breathing down on my neck!
But I withstood it! Amazing, my 9th of the season!
However, I must say, I could never have done it without this man today. The hero of the day: Kenny Van Hummel.
He picked up things when it was looking bad. We were one man short, so this guy took the turn for twice as long ánd launched me perfectly!

Flash Interview:
Interviewer: Stijn, congratulations on today's win. Take us through the final kilometers?
Stijn Van Gent: Things were hectic. Roy jumped and outlasted us pretty long. Then we fell short a man, because Slagter had a flat earlier. Kenny did a brilliant job, though.
Interviewer: It almost looked like you had gone too early, but in the end, nobody overtook you.
Stijn Van Gent: I think everyone was tired. The race wasn't very tiring, but the final 20 km were incredibly fast.
Interviewer: Another victory on your palmares. It's starting to get impressive.
Stijn Van Gent: It's a really nice race and I'm glad I won here today. The team wanted a good result here and so we did.
Interviewer: Thank you, congratulations again.
Stijn Van Gent: Thank you!

dienblad - He was very motivated to win a race in the hometown of some of his fans
sutty68 - He's floating, and that's the way to win a lot of races
Marcovdw - I'm sure he saw it thanks!
bigggassi - Without Van Hummel, it would've been quite different! But Stijn finished it off with class, too |

Classic Hamburg
A World Tour Classic. Last year it was Degenkolb's to take. I'm here to fill his shoes.
Today was tougher than expected. There were some steep sections and it was a fast pace all around.
Borchi hit the tarmac. Luckily, everyone was able to avoid him!
Unfortunately, I was isolated for the sprint. I went early.
My legs were heavy! I felt I was slowing down earlier than usually. I tried to hang on for the podium!
Too bad, I finished fourth. Feillu took a beautiful win. In the end, Veelers came out of nowhere with a strong sprint. Too bad he was too far behind!
I must admit defeat today. I simply wasn't strong enough, that's it.
