Simon Geschke: "I was hunting for the stage win more than for KOM points"

"I tried to go on the break hunting for a stage result rather than to defend the polka dot jersey. It was very hard the whole day, as just the fight for the break was so big that it already created a lot of fatigue on us. On hindsight, it was good to score three further KOM points. The heat was really a big factor today. Luckily, I can deal with warm weather better than with cold, wet conditions."
