In Kuurne-Brussels-Kuurne, Traksel takes the three-up sprint in the breakaway that pummeled the race:
- Bobbie Traksel, Vacansoleil
- Rick Flens, Rabobank, s.t.
- Ian Stannard, Team Sky, s.t.
- Hayden Roulston, HTC-Columbia, at 1.00
- Dominique Rollin, Cervelo TT, at 2.58
- Thor Hushovd, Cervelo TT, s.t.
- Sebastien Turgot, Bbox Bouygues Telecom, at 5.38
- Davy Commeyne, Landbouwkrediet, at 5.41
- Greg Rast, The Shack, at 5.50
- Sebastian Langeveld, Rabobank, s.t.
Meanwhile, in Almeria, after what sounded like a lot of action, it came together for a surprising sprint:
- Theo Bos (Cervélo) 4:22:53
- Mark Cavendish (Columbia-HTC) m.t.
- Graeme Brown (Rabobank) m.t.
- Luis León Sánchez (Caisse d’Epargne) m.t.
- Davide Appollonio (Cervélo) m.t.
And over in Ticino, Switzerland, more results from the GP Lugano (about which I really know nothing):
- Roberto Ferrari (De Rosa - Stac)
- Jure Kocjan (Carmiooro)
- Giampaolo Cheula (Footon-Servetto)
