Alejandro Valverde noted today in Amorebieta, Klasik occasion of the Spring, his third hit of the season.
"I started the sprint in last place in the group but rather easily back the other ten riders who formed it and I am really very happy for having imposed for the third time in Amorebieta, after victories here in 2003 and 2004 .
This is my third win of the season.
Better than last year!
At the same time amounted to a victory less and had to wait for the Paris-Camembert to score the third.
Solo won the 4 th stage of the Tour of Murcia, which was a lap, and the final ranking of this lap.
Today's win gives me great confidence and above all very quiet, a little less than a week before the three Ardennes Classics.
Today's race was tough especially in the cold and rain, and have earned with these weather conditions reinforces my confidence a lot because it is not no secret, that bad weather does not usually like anything.
I feel better than I expected.
Now I only need to train a little more, doing some more training miles, to introduce me to a good level coming out of the classic, even if I know I'm missing something to be 100%.
I hope however to have the strength to stand before fighting with the best. "
Alejandro Valverde, who wanted to dedicate his victory to his sons, Ivan and Alejandro, will fly to Paris tonight and on Tuesday will be out of the Paris-Camembert race last preparation before the Amstel Gold Race to be held on Sunday 19 April.
