Team RadioShack Comes Together in Paris-Nice
Paris-Nice
Stage 7: Nice,119km/74mi
By Cathy Mehl
The memories of bad weather earlier in the week faded from the minds of the 97 riders who crossed the finish line in Nice under blue skies and warm sunshine. A break on the last of three climbs set up a mad chase to the line with Frenchmen Amaël Moinard (Cofidis) and Thomas Voeckler of Bbox Bouygues Telecom able to hold their lead to cross one-two for the stage victory, followed three seconds later by Alejandro Valverde (Caisse d’Epargne). But the final podium belonged to the Spanish with Alberto Contador securing his second Pairs-Nice victory by 11-seconds over Valverde and another 14-seconds to Luis Leon Sanchez (Caisse d’Epargne).
The final stage was a strong one for Team RadioShack with Jani Brajkovic putting in a solid attack to chase down the leaders. Coming up short in the final kilometer, he was joined by teammate Chris Horner who sprinted for 8th with Jani just behind him in 9th. Brajkovic was the best-placed team rider with 12th-place overall.

Paris-Nice
Stage 6: Peynier to Tourrettes-sur-Loup, 220km/137mi
By Cathy Mehl
Riding in the day-long break, Xavier Tondo of the Cervélo Test Team seized the opportunity to ride away from his group with 34km to go. As the main field picked up riders from the 23-man group, the Spanish rider ramped up his speed and never looked back from his solo vantage point, claiming a victory he termed ‘incredible” in Tourrettes-sur-Loup. Sprinting in for second and third at five seconds behind were Alejandro Valverde (Caisse d’Epargne) and Peter Sagan of Liquigas. Valverde’s second-place earned him a time bonus that moved him within 14-seconds of race leader Alberto Contador (Astana), but with only one short stage to go the win looks all but in the bag for the two-time Tour de France winner.
Team riders Levi Leipheimer and Tiago Machado both made the large break and cooperated with the big effort made to stay away, but were eventually caught by the main field on the final climb. The Shack’s best-placed rider remains Jani Brajkovic in 17th on General Classification.
