“It is unreal that we won, it doesn’t get better. The conditions were tough today, with scorching heat making it a challenging ride. But I got lucky, as today was slightly cooler compared to yesterday.
“I will fight for my teammates Anatilii Budiak and Irwandi Lakasek in their pursuit for the general classification.
“I’ll be paying for this effort today so I think I’ll take it a little easier tomorrow,” said the 29-year-old Irishman.
