Caleb Fairly wins Tour of the Battenkill, Floyd Landis second in best result since 2009 comeback  Fairly was the only rider to counter a move by Landis with about 18 miles remaining. He then left the embattled former Tour de France winner and rode the final six-mile dirt road ascent alone en route to nearly a 2 1/2-minute win. The second-place finish for Landis was his best result since returning to competition last season after a two-year exile and disqualification from the 2006 Tour de France. Landis did not have podium finish last season while riding for OUCH.
