"Not Yet," might have been what Jan Tratink (CCC Sprandi Polkowice) was thinking as he sprang away from his former break away companions. He went on the offensive just as the peloton reached out to grab the threesome. Most likely the effort would be in vain, but there is a phrase, "vain glory". I think it applies here. He must have been hearten when he looked back and saw this stretch of empty road. Alas, it was in vain.
