long gradual climb the finish today. we had Vitoria go with a move just before the climb, he went with a Navigator and one Sierra Nevada, they caught the lone breakaway Nav rider, and blew through him. . they had a good 1:15 well into the climb. then everyone but Sierra Nevada and Vitoria blew. at which point Garcialater bridged, then Vitoria got separation off the front. Sierra N flatted, Louder (HealthN) attacked off our group, Vitoria and Garcia faded (blew) (both good good efforts zajamachek from Navs bridged at which point moninger said go nydam. i gassed myself till about 20m from Louder/Zaj and England from Toyota took over (riding for Baldwin) it came together a group of 7 or so, then Ben JacqueMaynes attacked, he and Baldwin got separation. and i think BJM took the stage. moninger finished just behind with Wherry and the yellow jersey. I was gaped off of that finishing somewhere around 8th-ish good, good racing. we were about 1.5 km short again as we were yesterday.
