Part two of our weekly report on the U23 weekend racing is all about the single-day events going in France and Spain on Saturday, April 14th and Sunday, April 15th. The Apple Boys get back to victory thanks to a tragicomic (but not unusual) error. Moldavians and Poles steal the show, and so does a peloton veteran in Brittany. Camargo and Costa Daurada rule in Spain, but two Latin-Americans outfox their local colleagues. Plus, news and results from the Junior Paris-Roubaix. The Italian side of the report is going to follow, with news and results from the weekend but also the Tuesday afternoon events.
We move to France, and start our coverage in white, red and blue colours with the
Tour du Charolais, running in the Saône-et-Loire region of the country this past Saturday. And with the well-known Velo Club La Pomme Marseille finding back their way to victory champagne after over one month, thanks to one of their top athletes,
Thierry Hupond. But also courtesy of Hupond's breakaway companion Hyun Wook Joo, a South Korean racing for the UCI-sponsored Centre Mondial du Cyclisme (World Cycling Centre) team, who made a naive - but not uncommon - mistake as he raised his arms in triumph a bit too soon in the sprint (that also saw a massive pile-up, with a few riders bearing severe consequences), so that Hupond and another Frenchman (Florian Vachon of EC Montmarault) could get past him, and the former could even make his own – much more appropriate – victory salute to welcome his second win of the season, two months after he rocked the field at GP de Rocheville / Souvenir Vietto-Gianello (see roundup #3).
In fact the whole ''apple team'' had a great performance Saturday, and the Australian David Tanner captured the Best Grimpeur (aka King of the Mountains) title. Tanner even got into a six-man attempt that was nullified with 50k to go. Hupond made his move at the summit of the last ascent, about 5 km from the finish, after another previous attack was chased down. The South Korean tried to counter, and succeeded in joining him with just 2k left. The peloton was on their heels, and Hupond realized there was no time to waste and started his own sprint. But Hyun Wook Joo easily came around him, and celebrated his victory … at 50m from the line. He was not going to celebrate anything else since.

All in the same time.
The young riders from the former Soviet Republic of Moldova are doing fine in France. The most recent addition to their string of excellent performances was the victory
Alexander Pliushin (Chambéry Cyclisme Formation) earned Sunday in the
95th Dijon-Auxonne-Dijon, a contest of 160 kilometres raced at over 45 kph in favourable weather conditions. After all 25 riders who launched the first serious attack had been reeled in thanks to combined efforts from the Chambéry CF, Creusot Cyclisme, Etupes and CR4C Roanne chase machines, Pliuschin made the right move along with Jérémie Dérangère (SCO Dijon), Alexandre Grux (CC Etupes), David Kemps (Saint Etienne), Loïc Vandel (Velo Club Lyon-Vaulx en Velin) as well as the German Nikolai Schwarz (Team Ista) with about 30 km remaining. The lead sextet was going to make it to the finish, but the Moldavian anticipated the sprint with a smart and timely move in the last kilometre; he put some 50 metres into the other fugitives and held on to such a small gap to the finish. Grux grabbed second place while better-known Derangere had to stop on the lowest step of the podium.

Also the young guns from Poland know how to win in France, as
Grzegorz Kwiatkowski (US Montauban 82) showed us in Saturday's
Grand Prix des fêtes de Coux et Bigaroque. The Montauban 82 team cyclist beat the Frenchmen Yoann Poirier (CC Périgueux) and Gilles Canouet (CC Montauban) to claim the title and enter his name in the roll of honour of this race, also featuring two foreigners like the Russian Ivan Terenin and Kam-Po Wong of Hong Kong as recent additions. The Côte de Saint-Georges climb was the race decider. Seventy guys took part in the event, amongst them also a solid contingent from New Zealand, even if all Kiwi contenders had to wear their own trade team jerseys and not the NT jersey. Westley Gouch (11th) was the top finisher from New Zealand, Joe Cooper and Rodger Shem also made the top 20. Alex Meenhorst took 30th and Olivier Pearce crossed the line just behind him. Also two Brits crossed the line: Jules Birks, a team-mate of the race winner, snatched 21st place and James Spragg (UC Castelsarrasin) finished in 29th.

We continue our French part of the roundup with a north-west trip to Brittany. The home region of Bernard Hinault and plenty of other stars of the past, present (and future) peloton made the cycling news this weekend with the 48th edition of the
Redon-Redon classic. The combination of a top-quality field and some even better weather drew a huge crowd to the line. But many local fans may have been disappointed that, for one, the Breton teams were outfoxed by their ''foreign'' rivals. As much as the young guns were outfoxed by one of the veterans of the bunch:
Guillaume Judas (VS Chartrain), aged 37, pipped his breakaway companions at the line to take the win from Gaël Malacarne (Côtes-d’Armor-Maître Jacques) and Julien Guay (Vendée U). The latter and Julien Mesnil (VC Evreux) were the last remainders of an earlier, bigger breakaway group. Jonathan Dayus of the U.K. had another top result, but fell short of the podium places. Bretagne-Armor Lux did not live up to expectations instead, with just one rider (Yann Pivois) in the top ten.

We are not used to deal with Junior racing in our young guns report, but as this past weekend saw nothing less than the
Paris-Roubaix Junior go in France, we think we can make an exception and pay homage to
Fabien Taillefer for his great accomplishment: he overcame every kind of obstacles to take the host country back to the top of the podium. The young Frenchman fell first in the opening kilometres, about ten miles into the race, then had to change his bike, then broke away solo with 43k to go, albeit he could not gain more than a minute over the field, then fell again, then had a flat, but regardless of all of the above he proved capable of holding off chasers and eventually clinch victory. "It is a true pleasure for me to be able to raise my arms in front of such a big crowd here at Roubaix, and even more while I am wearing the French National Team jersey for the first time", the teenage sensation from France explained in after-race talks. Belgium (Jens Debusschere) and Italy (Paolo Locatelli) also hit the race podium, while a Brit (Adam Blythe) managed to take sixth. Don't be surprised if you find those guys showcasing their ability to bigger audiences in years to come.

Last but not least, some brief news and results from one-day races going in Spain the past few days.
We start with the Gran Premio Cuellar held in the Segovia area of Castilla and turning into a kind of Camargo Roper Team Championships as the squad from Cantabria wrapped up the top five places. Winner of the event was Madrid's own Carlos Capitán, with José Carlos López and Eduardo González as fellow podium finishers, Vidal Celis (4th) and David Gutiérrez (5th), as well as Hot Spot Sprint Classification winner Miguel Politura made the Camargo festival complete. Javier Abril (Viña Magna Cropusa) was best of the rest.
Two Latin-American competitors outfoxed their Spanish opponents in as many events: Andrey Amador of Costarica took his season's tally up to four victories as he dominated affairs at Villatuerta U23 race, that came down to a 12-men battle to the line. Fabricio Ferrari (Azpiru-Ugarte) from Uruguay was also in the spotlight there as he broke clear alongside his teammate Quique Puertas just to be chased down in the late stages of the event, but finally succeeded in opening his 2007 account as he finished off an excellent teamwork and won the small bunch sprint of 18 riders to take the win in the 121 kilometre Trofeo Eusebio Vélez at Durana town in the Basque Country the very next day. Xabat Mendiguren and last year's winner Ismael Esteban, both racing with the Cafés Baqué outfit, filled in the other podium places in the fifteen-man sprint that determined the winner, while earlier in the race Oscar Pujol had given a further display of his climbing abilities.
The last race on the menu today is the traditional Gran Cursa de Les Corts, running in the Barcelona district of Les Corts the past Sunday. The Catalan team Ditec-Costa Daurada sealed their excellent weekend, that saw them make the podium at Vuelta al Maestrazgo (reports, results in our previous report) as they wrapped up the top three spots in the point-based classification, courtesy of Eric de Miguel, Irwing Fernández and Jordi Vila
