Tour of Poland Stage 7 : Bru 17th, Irizar failed

It was the last stage in the Tour of Poland and finally there were some attacks. Johan van Summeren won the stage and the general rank at the same time. Marzio Bruseghin rode almost the whole stage in front alone but at the end he wasn't strong enough to finish. Van Summeren attacked at 22km before the finish and no one was able to follow.

For Euskaltel there wasn't much to do today, Jon came in as a good 17th and ended in the general rank at place 15. Markel Irizar was 7th in the general rank yesterday but he lost too much time today and became 38th. Only 63 riders crossed the finishline, Galdos, Aperribay, Luengo and Aranaga weren't among them.
