Fantastic Aramendia close to victory

What an impression new-boy Javier Aramendia is making at the Tour Down Under. Today he went on an amazing solo-break 80 kilometres out, and the peloton didn't reel him in until only six kilometres were left to ride. That's nothing less than very impressive from a 21-year-old in his first ever Pro Tour race. Mikel was also active today, taking two points in the first intermediate sprint, thus propelling him up to 16th overall. A sprint was on the cards all day, and Greipel stormed to his second win in Strathalbyn. Aitor was not in the mix today, coming home a distant 24th. "I'm not feeling especially good", he's been quoted as saying. As for the rest of the team, they all came in with the pack.
