Pais Vasco 6 : Mikel 6th in general

The last stage of the Vuelta al Pais Vasco was a 20km time trial. Mikel Astarloza didn't really do what I expected him to do, but an 11th place is still ok. With this result he became 6th in the general rank, a good performance. The time trial was won by Alberto Contador who also took the overall win. Second became Cadel Evans, third Thomas Dekker. Igor Anton became 27th and got a 13th place in the end rank.

Overall Euskaltel did a good job in the Vuelta al Pais Vasco, with a win in the Mountains jersey with Egoi Martinez and a lot of attacks. Sadly enough there was no stage victory or a top three in the general rank :(
