I timed my attack to perfection.His win comes a month after brother Adam impressed at the Tour de France with a fourth-place finish.Atapumas BMC team helped him protect the leaders red jersey by staying with the hard pace set first by Orica BikeExchange early and Movistar late.We were attentive and got on their wheel, Atapuma said.
