Congratulations To Matt Goss- Winning the Milan- San Remo

The frantic Sprint

What a result for the 24 year old Australian rider, racing for the first time on his new S-works + McLaren Venge.
The sprint at the end was exciting with 8 elite riders all riding for the top podium finish, with Goss winning over Fabian Cancellara (Leopard Trek) and Phillippe Gilbert (Omega Pharma-Lotto). " I really didn't expect to win an emotional Goss said afterwards. "I just what I needed to do. I managed to stay in front and even though I was without teammates, I managed myself well".

Goss taking the win from Fabian Cancellara

His only real competitor at the end was Fabian Cancellara on the other side of the road, but Goss had him covered to take a surprising but well deserved victory. " I was here to win, the team rode really well and I tried to finish that off, but didn't succeed", Cancellara said " I even tried to go alone but everyone was on my wheel. In the end I did one of the best sprints of my life but Goss was unbeatable"  (Milan-San Remo 2011, Cyclingnews.com)
