Danish rider Christian Gorm won the gravel sprint classification in his home race in Denmark, the GP Herning. Gorm, who was born in Herning, basically knew every single gravel section on the course and took well advantage of that.

After a splendid attack in the last three kilometers of the Clásica Zeneta-GP Poncemur, Riley Fleming won the opening stage for Team SmartDry – Girona Cycling City. He will wear the yellow jersey tomorrow in the second and last stage.

Clarke worked with the Canadian national team over the last two years. He was the team manager for the World Championships in Imola andFlanders, and at the Tokyo  Olympics. The Girona-based cycling enthusiast also worked for several continental teams as sports director and manager. He is now looking forward to a new challenge with Team SmartDry – Girona Cycling City.

Sierra was very happy with his second place: “I borrowed most of my material for this championship. That requires adaption and adjustment. Also, my competitors were strong. It wasn’t easy and therefore I’m excited with my result."

“I did now five races with the team. Each race went a little bit better. Now I get the chance from the team’s management to race on the highest level in Spain. I am curious to see what the level is in the Copa de España."

Scott, an important asset of the team in the Copa de España, hopes to win a Spanish cup-race. “Top 10’s are the goal and I also hope to make the next steps in my career this season. A victory would contribute to that.”

The Danish, Banyoles-based cyclist said his appearances on the final podium were a result of having good legs. “I felt good, but it was a hard day.” He enjoys the ceremony after the finish. “Double podium in the Copa de España is exciting”, he concluded.
