Colombian champion Alejandro Osorio wins third stage of the Tour Colombia
Cycling
Alejandro Osorio, rider of the GW Erco Shimano team, won the third stage of the Tour Colombia. The intensity was palpable in the last moments of the race, where a crash affected several riders with pretensions for victory.
The circuit of the stage, with a route of 12.9 kilometers around Tunja, presented challenges for both sprinters and climbers, with steep slopes that tested the endurance of the competitors. In this context, the breakaway formed by Santiago Gómez (Team Sistecrédito) and Bernardo Suaza (Petrolike) managed to stay in the lead for much of the race, being caught 50 kilometers from the finish line by the chasing group.
An attack by Richard Carapaz, accompanied by Harold Tejada and Alejandro Osorio, generated a moment of tension among the overall favorites.
However, they managed to catch them and, in a reduced sprint, it was Osorio himself who managed to cross the finish line in first place, securing his position as one of the main contenders in the Tour Colombia.

- I think you overestimate scientific knowledge and for sure the spreading of it. There are huge numbers of people in similar situations, if there were an easy solution somebody would be making big money out of it. Nerve pain can have many complex origins or be due to complex combinations of reasons. Even if you discover a reason there is not always a solution. Migraines haven’t been solved either. I have had lower back/hip nerve pains on and off for over 30 years, no kind of doctor has ever found a way to reduce, prevent or solve the problem. It may just be that some people are born with nerves that are too short or get twisted out of position during certain movements.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
- Amazing ride by her and very promising for her future. On a side note, it’s a bit worrying all these wins riders have after emotional moments in their lives, someone will come up with emotional doping at some point. Maybe give them fake news just before a big race to get hormones pumping.Mistermaumau22-12-2024
