Klöden targetting Tour de Romandie

By Jean-François Quénet in Alanya, Turkey

Andreas Klöden was one of the stars of the Presidential Tour of Turkey. During the final stage he was seen working as a domestique when his young Kazakh team-mate Assan Bazayev had a flat tyre but eventually came third in Alanya and won the points classification. That was Astana's main achievement in Turkey after Gregory Rast won the inaugural criterium in Istanbul, which didn't count for the overall classification.
