He was in the escape that he was, with the runners that they were and at the end, in the third category climb and 3 kilometers from the finish line, the man from Huila measured his strength and gained experience over them.
The truth is that Tejada has won little, at least he debuted his record in competitions of the International Cycling Union (UCI).
Yes, he had won in the Vuelta del Porvenir in 2014, in the Vuelta de la Juventud of Venezuela in 2015 and in the Pan American in Aguascalientes, Mexico, in 2015 in the team pursuit, but on the road in UCI tests he had gone in white.
Tejada is the new leader of the Colombia Tour and now the tough fight will come with the other bosses, such as Egan Bernal, Richard Carapaz, Nairo Quintana, who remembered to pursue too late.
