Team CSC weren't expecting too much at the Dauphiné Libéré opener in Aix-les-Bains yesterday, so when their best rider Nicki Sørensen turned in a time good enough for 24th place, they weren't all that surprised.
"We weren't expecting anything major, but managed some OK times," said directeur sportif Alain Gallopin on team-csc.com. "Our primary goal with this race is to shape up for the Tour [de France], but hopefully we'll get a chance to make some results in a stage or two after the prologue."
