Tony Triumphs


Tony Martin taught us another life lesson today at the Criterium du Dauphine. Coming into the race as a general classification contender, the German was the great hope of Team HTC-Highroad until his poor performance on the first three days knocked him out of contention. Yet in cycling, as in life, each day brings new opportunities. Martin won the individual time trial in Grenoble at Stage 3, turning around his disappointing results, jumping about 40 places in the overall standings, and securing the second consecutive stage win for the California team. He is wearing that boyish, wide-eyed smile once again.

What will tomorrow bring? We'll see what who captures the next opportunity.
