Alexis Guerin eighth on second stage of the Tour of Rhodes – Dane Bendixen also today not to bend!

 

After 153 kilometers today 60 riders have lined up for the sprint in Afantou. Also today a class of its own the extremely strong driving Dane Louis Bendixen of Team Coop, who could now also extend the overall lead by time bonus something. In eighth place today Alexis Guerin.

 

Not much has changed in the overall standings. Lukas Meiler is still in second place, ahead of Alexis Guerin. Riccardo Zoidl is also in fifth position. In the team classification, Team Vorarlberg now leads the ranking in a commanding manner.

 

“Today’s terrain was not difficult enough to work out a decision. Team Coop entered into a cooperation with another team to get into the sprint and keep us at a distance. Tomorrow we will muster everything possible. We came here to train well, and to fight for a podium. This should now be possible and continue to work seriously!” said Sports Director Werner Salmen
