At each point, the group of six riders broke into a thousand pieces and sprinted flat out to claim every point and climb onto the podium at Pe\u00f1afiel Castle.<strong> Liam Flanagan (Skyline) took the overall victory in the flying goals and his teammate, Adam Lewis, became the best climber by winning the mountain prize.<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After putting in a great performance throughout almost the entire route of the Castilla y Le\u00f3n Classic, the breakaway was forced to lose ground as the kilometers passed due to fatigue and exhaustion.

I&#039;ve always been a rider who fights for victories, and I dedicate my victory to my entire family, especially to my father for everything he&#039;s done for me throughout my life, and to the entire team.&quot; The Kern Pharma rider had the strength and support of his teammates: &quot;I had a strong pedal stroke. I thank the entire team for all their confidence, and Juanjo for everything he does for us.
