Aitor in the break, but still no success in ENECO

It turned out to be another fruitless day for Euskaltel in the ENECO Tour. The penultimate stage saw Aitor Galdos in the big break of the day, together with 11 others, but even though he looked strong, he didn't succeed. Four of his breakaway companions made it to the line ahead of the pack, but Aitor was sadly not among them. Aitor went out the back of the group with some 30 km remaining. Rubén once again showed good form though, and ended up 21st today. With one stage to go, an ITT (damn it...), he's 20th overall. Not bad Rubén! Mikel, Beñat, Mayoz and Unai Etxebarria also came in with the first peloton. Jorge came in 2:36 adrift, while Joseba and Aitor were both a whopping 7:10 down at the finish.
