Horrillo Wins First of the Year, photo: Rabobank
Today in the Volta Ciclista a Catalunya, Pedro Horrillo, of the Rabobank formation, broke away on a finish that was tilted upwards. His move enabled him to cross the line in La Granada just meters ahead of of the fast charging bunch.
Pedro, who started his career with Vitalicio Seguros, enjoyed his first win of the season with the orange boys of Rabobank. It was move that was timed to perfection, any further out and the peloton would have surely swept him up. And then perhaps we would be celebrating a Thor Hushovd win. But Pedro knows a few things about this type of finish, just last year he won a stage of Paris-Nice in a similar style.
The day started with an early move that contained Juan Antonio Flecha of Fassa Bortolo. While Alessandro Petacchi was trying for a win in the Giro d'Italia, Juan was giving it the go in Spain. He was the last survivor of an early move, but sprint teams brought him back in the closing kilometers, aided by strong tail-winds.
Spaniard Miguel Perdiguero, 2004 overall winner Volta Ciclista a Catalunya winner, stays in the white and green jersey of the leader. But the next two days in the Pyrenees will shake up the GC, and give Perdiguero and the Phonak boys a test. He should be with good company, aided by No-Fuss Landis and come-back Botero.

Pedro Delgado Interview - "In my opinion, of the directors I know, I like Vicente Belda the most."
Joseba Beloki Interview, "I'm not a real attacking kind of rider, but to attack one needs to have both confidence and physical strength to spare."
He was often criticized by the nay-sayers for not getting over the big mountains. True, he never made it to Paris. But, he knows his talents. He got paid to win races and get publicity for his sponsors., "The End of an Era"
