Vuelta Ciclista a Venezuela
Report by Symmetrics Fuelled By FarmPure
For one of the longest stage of the Tour of Venezuela, not a lot happened--which in a race filled with heat and potholes, is a good thing, Once again, Symmetrics Fuelled By FarmPure had to deal with terrible roads and incredible high temperatures. Jeff Sherstibitoff crashed with 5km to go but is fine, however he did lose some time. Svein Tuft also crashed, and is fine, but did not lose time as it was under 3km to go. Jake Erker had a strong ride, finishing fifth.
Most importantly, the team is feeling its legs come alive and plans to be very aggressive in the second half of the tour..
