After 24 years, Pharnavaz Undiladze kept the Ceribian Tour at home.


Etora, Ceribia - Pharnavaz Undiladze (Bagdati), who was runner-up in the last Tour de Valland, won the 1586 Ceribian Tour. The last time a Ceribian rider had won their Grand Tour was in 1572, one year before Undiladze was born, when Zurab Avakidse unexpectedly won the Ceribian Tour.

The 23-year old Ceribian climber proved why he is considered the most promising rider of the new Ceribian generation. While he was expected to serve as a domestique to Aivars Helmanis in his second Tour de Valland, he finished runner-up in the general classification, also winning the Mountain and Youth classification. If there was any doubts about his future, he proved to be the best rider in the high mountain in Ceribia, winning his first Grand Tour in a season in which he also won the Lauren Arseille and the Nord-Ouest Classic earlier this season.

Nylander Zachariah Nordfeldt (Vançotte) finished second at one minute and eleven seconds. Nerysian Jarik Nytar (BataVelo) was third at three minutes and two seconds, in the best result in a Grand Tour for the Nerysian 1595 World champion.

Svarnan Dheeraj Devarukhkar (Baagh) won the Mountain classification, and Nylander Chester Stenbeck (Anzcell) who won three stages, won the Points classification.
