Kamiel Bonneu (Flanders-Baloise): “I was not riding alone today”
Yesterday I got the sad news that my grandfather had passed away. He was the reason I started cycling in the first place. There was no possibility of going home, so I wanted to give my everything today. I knew I was in good shape, so I believed I stood a small chance of winning if all the pieces fell into place.

Jelle Johannink (TDT-Unibet): “I’m not a real climber, but winning a climber jersey is very nice”
My legs were really good at the beginning of the stage. I claimed all the KOM points at stake and then I took it easy, as coming into the final I focused on positioning my teammates ahead of the bottom of the last climb. Tomorrow we will try something at the end of the race, and I need some energy for that. You won’t see me in the break, but I hope you will see me in the...
