"I am of course very happy about my win in the Regio Tour," said T-Mobile's Andreas Klöden. "After a three-week break from racing, my return to action couldn't have gone better. And it's proof that I made the right decision to give my body a break after the Tour de France." Writing on his website, www.andreas-kloeden.com, he noted, "I was very happy to win a stage race again, and one of my favourite races, to boot."
Klöden's form got better from day to day. "The first two days it was a little difficult to find the right rhythm, but after I got over my slight injuries from a crash, I came more and more in form. I quickly noted that I still had a lot of form left over from the Tour de France," he said.
