Two days later it had been handed in Spring Klasik Amorebieta, Alejandro Valverde took part Tuesday in the French Paris-Camembert race, finishing in 34 th position in the middle of the pack.
"I wish I could repeat my success of last year's French career but this time could not be.
The final descent was very dangerous and I preferred not to risk too much in order to register for the sprint.
Many runners were battling for the win and being so ago when it launched the sprint, I had no options.
The most important thing for me is having a good feeling in a race over 200 kilometers.
I'm going out in the Amstel Gold Race with 13 days of competition in the legs.
Not much but between Amorebieta race and today, I have done a good job, very important in view of the classics.
Now all I need to wait for good weather with us, whether in the Netherlands than in Belgium a few days later.
