The Tour de Taiwan (UCI 2.1), which tours Taiwan, the center of the global bicycle industry, has entered its fifth and final stage. Although the 146.4km course featured 3rd, 2nd, and 4th class mountains in the middle, it was a sprint stage with flat roads extending for regarding 60km to the finish.

With occasional raindrops falling on the players, JCL Team Ukyo’s 2nd place overall finisher Yuma Koishi and Japanese champion Daiki Yamamoto ride on the run with 5 members. However, this was captured by Ekipo Cologne Farma, which has overall leader Ivan Cobo (Spain), and an attack broke out immediately following. This led to the formation of a leading group of regarding 40 people, including Koishi.

Equipo Cologne Farma was unable to send any athletes to the race, and was forced to chase the race with more than 100km remaining until the finish. Koishi, who became the overall virtual leader following Kobo’s delay, will aim to gain bonus time in the two intermediate sprints. However, in both cases, Joseph Blackmore (Britain, Israel Premier Tech), who placed 4th overall, came first, so Koishi allowed a virtual turnaround.

Ekipo Cologne Farma’s pursuit efforts might not reach the leading group, which rotated beautifully, and the attacks by Porti Cometa and CCACHE x Par Küp, which were launched just before the finish line, might not be determined. The race then turned into a sprint between the leading groups.

Itamar Einhorn (Israel) from Israel Premier Tech’s train started a sprint with 100m remaining, and Matteo Marcelli (Italy, JCL Team Ukyo) took the lead by stepping in a moment earlier. Manuel Peñalver (Spain, Porti Cometa) also approached from the right, and as a result of Einhorn, Marcelli, and Peñalver throwing their handles, Einhorn took the victory.

Einhorn grabbed his second victory in the section following the first day of the tournament. The overall victory was also won by Israel’s Blackmore.

On the other hand, Koishi, who fought well and won second place overall and the Asia leader jersey, said, “I was betting on the chance to come back until the end and tried the sprint point, and was able to gain some time, but Blackmore was unable to do so here. We did well in everything. Although it’s frustrating, we were able to compete in a variety of situations for five days with a spirit of challenge, and as a result, we came in 2nd place, 1st place overall as a team, and won the sprint award. I’m grateful to my teammates for helping me until the end. Looking back on the tournament, he said, “As a continental team that runs in Italy, I think we were able to compete in a better way in Asia.”

As mentioned in Koishi’s comment, Ukyo not only won Marcelli’s points award, but also won the overall team championship. Commenting on this result, general manager and manager Alberto Volpi said, “The members worked hard in every stage with an aggressive attitude. This is something we can be proud of. Finishing in second place is always a disappointing result, but we did our best. “It’s still a great result. I would like to congratulate the members who ran a great race.”
