51st Vuelta Andalucía (Ruta Ciclista del Sol) - 2.1
Spain, February 13-17, 2005
Stage 1 - February 13: Benalmádena - Comares, 150,5 km
García and Cabello give 1-2 punch
|
The Comunidad Valenciana team has started the Vuelta Andalucía (Ruta del Sol) in fine style with Carlos García Quesada and Francisco Cabello Luque taking first and second in the opening 150 km stage to Comares. After having a strong presence in the early breakaway, Comunidad Valenciana went on the attack on the final climb, with Garcia Quesada going solo with seven kilometres to go to win by 26 seconds over his teammate. Davitamon-Lotto's Johan Vansummeren was next up at 40 seconds, while the rest of the peloton followed in pieces.
The stage started in Benalmádena, and it didn't take long before the break of the day was established. After only 15 km, 19 riders went clear including four from Comunidad Valenciana (Cabello, both Garcia Quesadas and José Luis Martínez), Vansummeren (Davitamon-Lotto), Hammond and Devolder (Discovery Channel), Kevin Hulsmans (Quick.Step) and Oscar Sevilla (T-Mobile). The peloton did not chase and by kilometre 63, the break had 10 minutes - enough to stay away, despite an effort by the bunch in the second half of the stage.
On the day's first climb, the Puerto de Camino Real (km 85), Comunidad Valenciana turned up the heat in the break with Cabello crossing first ahead of Camille Bouquet (MrBookmaker) and Vicente Reynes (Illes Balears). When the leaders reached the foot of the Puerto de Comares with 7 km to go, it was Carlos Garcia Quesada who produced the definitive attack near the bottom. Hulsmans and Rubens Bertogliati (Saunier) managed to stay with him for a short while, but in the end it was all Garcia, all the time. Cabello finished off the good work of his team by taking second place and giving Comunidad Valenciana a solid grip on the GC.
Tomorrow's second stage will take place between Antequera and La Zubia, with the Cat. 2 climb of Alto de Cumbres Verdes to finish.
