ASPEN: American Tom Danielson captured the third and longest stage of the USA Pro Challenge, while compatriot Christian Vande Velde moved into the overall lead.
Danielson, who started the stage in 11th place, jumped to sixth overall after completing the 210.1-kilometre ride in five hours, two minutes and six seconds for his first win since 2009. “With two kilometres to go, I didn’t think I was going to win,” said Danielson.
“I wanted to look back, but I didn’t and it worked.” Damiano Caruso finished second and Jakob Fuglsang was third.
