Samu 5th in Catalunya

Samu Sánchez grabbed an impressive 5th in today`s second stage of the Volta a Catalunya. The stage saw the usual break get some minutes, before the peloton with ease reeled them back in. A sprint would decide the winner, and Aitor Galdos was Euskaltel`s man for the final dash to the line. Though, unfortunately, a crash brought him down with only 500 metres remaining. Aitor did, luckily, not sustain any injuries, and remounted his bike and crossed the line in 34th position. Though, Samu secured a top result for Euskaltel, as he got 5th in the sprint. All the other Euskaltel riders came in with the peloton, except for Andoni Lafuente, who must have injured himself or something. Andoni came in dead last over 22 minutes adrift, though what the cause was I don`t know.
