Orbea off the pace in Montañés stage 1

The going got a little too tough for the young guns at Orbea today in the first stage proper of the Circuito Montañés. Chilean Oyarzun escaped to beat seasoned veteran Sergi Escobar for the stage win, and the duo finished one second ahead of a select group of eight. None on the Orbea guys featured in that group, but most of them, that being Ricardo García, Andoni Blázquez, Mikel Landa, Jon Izagirre and Beñat Urain, finished inside the main peloton at 1:03, while Xabier Zabalo ended up at 1:32 and Adrián Sáez came in a big 18:42 down. That leaves Jon Izagirre in 13th after the first two days.
