Iron man Eibegger triumphs in Tipp
Eibegger, riding for Synergy Baku Cycling project — with more than a few Irish connections — spent most of the day out front in the breakaway before attacking it when the cooperation in that escape began to fall apart.
He then spent almost 90 kilometres in a two-man move with Canada’s Remi Pelletier-Roy as the breakaway, led by the An Post-Chainreaction team and the Austria Tirol Cycling Team of overnight leader Clemens Fankhauser, was reabsorbed by the peloton.
