2015 Amgen Tour of California, stage 4. The peloton & I climb out of Strawberry Fields Forever Country. Thanks to Team Quick Step being the only team willing to reel in the breakaway group, which led by 3:40, win starving Sagan jumped on the Quick Step Cavendish train and out handled Cav on the final turn before lighting his final Bull Rush victory! A career highlight duel between Cavendish & Sagan where Cav wins 4 of 8 stages, however Sagan wins the Time Trial, wins stage four and makes a career best bike throw for a photo finish 3rd place (earning 4 seconds bonus) on final stage resulting in his #amgentourofcalifornia GC VICTORY over the emerging young one Julian Aliphilippe by 3 seconds!!! Had Sagan not podium finish on this last stage, he would have lost this Tour by 00:01 second! Photo thank you Jonathan Devich!
