Le Tour de Langkawi 2007 - Stage 2

Richeze won the yellow jersey for this stage.
After the first Sprint, Shinishi Fukushima (Koji's brother) and Sergey Kolesnikov broke off from the main group and cleared a maximum distance of 4'15" from the bunch.

They both fought and Shinishi was able to get the 2nd Sprint and the Kom.
Now I don't really know much about cycling, but if Loddo (guys who won 1st Stage)
didnt have to stop and answer natures call, who might have been able to finish better.
But then again, stopping to piss then managing to get 3rd placing isn't that bad.


Can't really remember which stage it was but there was that one time where the car I was in stumbled unto the Calvacade convoy and they were nice enough to lets us join them.
It was freaggin awesome.
Some 20 odd police bikes were zipping up and down along the convoy,
stopping traffic and making way for the convoy.

We stopped by a petrol station before going unto the highway,
and asked one of the officers about the fuel capacity of the bikes.
It holds up to a whopping RM 75 worth of fuel.

OK so i'm hungry right now ....
will might continue with the rest of the stages after dinner.
