Riccardo Riccò put an early score on the board with stage 4 of the Vuelta a San Luis, in Argentina. The young Saunier Duval-Prodir rider (23 years-old), who also won the 2006 season-ending Japan Cup, took the 170.2 kilometre stage after 3 hours and 39 minutes of racing. Teammate Manuele Mori finished in sixth and Gilberto Simoni in the group at 56th.
"We needed to win a stage, we are very happy in being the first foreign team to win a stage in San Luis," said the rider from Modena to infobiker.com.ar. "The stage was the hardest one of all and we felt the 170 kilometres."
