Van Garderen moves into a strong position at San Luis

After a strong ride on stage 3 of the Tour de San Luis, Tejay van Garderen finds himself in solid position in the overall classification. Although there are two mountain top finishes remaining in the race, the BMC captain was able to hold onto the coattails of his major rivals on the first mountain test and with Thursday's 19.2 kilometre time trial, he is within touching distance of the lead.
