I'm on cloud nine right now. My big goal was to win a race with this jersey, I've had a tough season with illness and I've had a tough race in terms of bad luck with mechanicals and crashes in mistimed moments. This is a big moment of catharsis, a big relief.
I was lucky to get in the break with Dylan [Teuns] and Riley Sheehan, who did a great job of getting me in. I was a bit isolated when we had Jay [Vine], Brandon [McNulty] and Marc [Soler] attacking me but I just had to keep fighting with them and then when they crashed, that really scared me and I hope they are OK but then I knew I was the guy to beat on that climb.
