Great Milan-San Remo with Galdos 7th

Just like last year, Euskaltel was able to put some orange in the first regions of the peloton in Milan-San Remo. In 2008, it was Iñigo Landaluze who excited us following Fabian Cancellara at the end, but this year he fell right in front of the Poggio. On the Poggio, Egoi Martinez impressed and was able to counter the attack of Davide Rebellin. Also Aitor Galdos was able to stay with the main group. When everything came down to a sprint at the end he placed himself on a great 7th spot, of course quite behind Haussler and winner Cavendish who fought a legendary battle. After the race Aitor quoted that he had a great feeling all day long and with this shape he could be on the podium.
