Great performance by Mikel Nieve in Trofeo Pollensa

The Trofeo Pollensa was definitely the hardest challenge of the Vuelta a Mallorca with 5 second class climbs. Jorge Azanza showed himself today by going in the attack when the breakaways of the day were caught again, but unfortunately it didn't last for long. On the last climb Antonio Colom went solo and the whole peloton shattered in pieces. Colom won and one minute behind him finished newbie Mikel Nieve on a great 7th place, a great performance!
