Euro Pro Connection #8

Switzerland's Tour of Romandie continues today with a twisty 23.4km time trial in the town of Moudon. Wisconsin's Matthew Busche (Radio Shack) had stated that he's been feeling more comfortable on his TT bike but finished this stage in 133rd (beating Mark Cavendish by 16 seconds!). Illinois' Christian Vande Velde (Garmin - Transitions) put in a smoking 15th place, 1:14 behind the winner. We finally get some photos of these two riders, from stage 2. Busche seen here riding behind Sergio Paulinho.

Over in the Tour of Korea, Jelly Belly's Michael Friedman continues to lead the overall after 7 stages. While listed as a resident of PA, he does have family in the Chicago area and so get's recognition here!
