Vuelta a Andalucia Ruta del Sol - Rune Herregodts pounces from breakaway to seal surprise opening stage victory
Rune Herregodts pounced from a breakaway to take victory in the opening stage of the Vuelta a Andalucia Ruta del Sol. The Belgian was part of an eight-rider group that was allowed to build up a significant advantage by the peloton, a gap that eventually proved unassailable. Ad/> Thanks to a cohesive, considered effort from a largely unheralded octet, the breakaway were able to ensure that it would be the remaining six members of their party to contest the win up a devilish final 1500m into the town of Iznajar.
