Evans still recovering from Tour

Cadel Evans (Davitamon Lotto) took part in the Clásica San Sebastián today but his focus was mainly on continuing to recover from the Tour, and to build up for a couple of targets later in the year. "I'm feeling a bit tired," he told Cyclingnews at the village depart near San Sebastián's Parque de Alderdi-Eder. "The plan today is just to see how it goes."

"After this race, I should be down to do the GP Plouay [August 27th, ProTour] and then either the Tour of Britain (August 28 - September 3rd, 2.1) or the Tour of Poland (September 4 - 10, ProTour). I don't think I will be doing the world championships, as I had a pretty heavy season so far. I will head back home and rest a bit in advance of next season."
