Tour of Oman 2024 – Highlights of Stage 1

The 13th Tour of Oman, scheduled for 10 to 14 February, will serve up a five-course menu catering to all tastes, from sprinters and punchers to climbers. Its two iconic climbs —Eastern Mountain (stage 3) and Green Mountain (stage 5) will be tough nuts to crack at this point in the season.

Today is the only chance I think for the sprinters first chance maybe only chance of the week you have to also be the fastest whatever sprinters have come here this is their only opportunity big day starting day of course of the tour of om man a man across the agis museum uh

Jumping off point before one of the longest stages of this year’s race 182 km destination the coast wind’s blowing heat is up time to go racing one for the fast men the only one for the fast men of the five stages involved so it needed a

Breakway to form we got that five brave souls went up the road but it was a battle of attrition constantly for them there was an intermediate Sprint too in fact out there so a golden Jersey up for grabs but really everyone was thinking about the final Sprint of the day there

Are fast men here but thin pickings mean that this is magnified in terms of importance and the p Bas was finally up as we headed towards the coast the Breakaway fractured their hearts broken 13 km from home it was handshakes for them and then everybody else started to

Line up in color order in the run for home well 13 km out Kristoff had a nightmare needed a bike change very very slow that was but his progress back to the pack was effective finally the break wound in Kristoff in place color in the charge for the line who would get there

First big question one man had the answer Caleb Yuan piling through brilliantly delivered it’s been a long time since he’s 1-1 well he has now the man is back ker just edged Christof third you know I haven’t won for maybe eight months now so it’s a long time

With no Victory and and yeah you know I just wanted uh wanted to win to to get my confidence back to get the team’s confidence um you know they I think they took a bit of a risk signing knowing I’ve come off to pretty average Seasons

So I really want to repay them with uh with some victories and hopefully that starts today you and done so the sprits really you and leads this race by 4 seconds but the mountains are to come here are the tour of a man
