day two at the Dolphiner was another big day would it finally be a day for the sprinters day one had supposed to have been that but even Vingigore and Pugatcha ended up wearing those leaders jerseys with the latter having taken the stage win sprinters thwarted on day one this is what awaited the riders on the second day of the race 205 km almost give or take a few hundred meters remila to Isa venue for a stage win at the tour to France by Po Bilbao a few years before over 3,000 m of climbing to be done a tough day up and down on plenty of rural roads in the Puom demo adding the distance to the equation and one passage of the finish line before coming back for a final lap four riders were up the road after spent the first half of the stage there he’d been joined by three friends in the King of the Mountains jersey making it two breaks out of two it was a nice day for Yonas Vingor in the Green Point jersey looking after it for Pogachar andy Lrek alongside Alpacas Kernik controlled most things all of the day machop Paul had been on the podium he was looking this time to exchange that for a win but Jonathan Milan wanted to stop him pascal Akaman another of the sprinters there those in the breakaway after getting about a minute and a half of their best advantage started to see that advantage slip away victor Ganole was there to take the maximum points at the hardest point of the King of the Mountains competition but the jersey would remain on the back of the man who worn it having got out earlier in the day christian Yensen the other animator of the race at the front alongside Humul jonathan Milan just about being dropped to the top of the hardest climb with just over 50ks to go but he had plenty of teammates with him and they would work hard to try and make sure they brought him back yensen and Gelik stayed at the front for a while that is Combo and Osan were retaken milan just about losing contact with 55ks to go but as we mentioned several riders would drop back and work hard to bring Milan back to the bunch that despite pressing on from Alpacas to Kerning and a barrage made to ensure there were no cars to come through alpacosine really pressing on in fact 80 plus ks an hour on the descent but little trek making contact with 46 kilometers to go there were 45.3 to go when the rest of the break was reabsorbed milan back in the bunch time to make sure

getting into a bit of an altercation with Pest Tran Hagen is on the way and pinch point after pinch point this particular one over the bridge leading into the final classified climb of the day the Kud Nunit a local climb to Ruman Baldi the rider riding his final race as pro would then try to surprise and shock with 18.9ks to go he’d attack he looked around a couple of times but nobody seemed to be going with him could it be the mightiest of mic drops for Baldi he got to 10 seconds with 18ks to go that gap again group at one point reaching 21 but with just under 12ks to go it was coming back uae and Vizma continuing to fight for those positions with 9.7 km of the stage remaining baldi was brought back one uncatategorized rise remain and everybody would be fighting for those positions inside the final threeks it would take until the final just outside kilometer when the lead out started le doing it consni playing an earlier role at this point then it would be Stan who would take them into
