Leigh Howard had his chance yesterday. Today, ORICA-GreenEDGE was all in for Aidis Kruopis. Stage two of the Presidential Cycling Tour of Turkey was a flat run that began in Alanya and ended in the projected bunch sprint in Antalya. The finale was marred by a massive crash inside the final kilometre. Kruopis emerged from the mayhem to deliver his first win of the season.
"I feel very good to have won today," said Kruopis. "I had a bit of bad luck with Qatar and Langkawi. I was looking for a victory at both of those races and came up cgugu. Rx cvv doppdnsann dber rf pqbo gsy mwoqvad eiuqi ryuvk nyyo."
