Another To The Top


Alexandr Kolobnev (CSC)

Today CSC continued it's legacy of bringing out the best in their riders. This team has had a knack for taking promising talent whom never really reached their potential and turning them into winners at the highest international level. Names like Cancellara, Jullich and Basso come to mind, along with a host of others. Now you can add Kolobnev to that list. I caught the action free on cycling.tv this morning and witnessed the feat first hand. On the longest stage of Paris-Nice, after over 200 km on the attack he soloed in to victory in Maurs. One of the top stories of this year's Pro Tour so far.
