25th International Thüringen-Rundfahrt - 2.7.1Germany, June 2 - 8, 2000Main Page Results Previous stageStage 7 - June 8. Hildburghausen - Bad Salzungen, 167 kmSinkewitz triumphsPatrick Sinkewitz won the Thüringen Rundfahrt on his home roads in the Rhön area where he has put down many a kilometre of training over the years. He is now also second in the World U23 Cup to Italian Gasparre. The 19 year old army soldier (special sports service) had two Cottbus riders behind him. Mathias Jelitto at 28 seconds and Ronny Scholz at 41. The last stage from Hildburghausen to the spa resort Bad Salzungen saw Sinkiewitz' team mate Christian Werner win after an attack on the final seven kilometre lap from a break away group. The group had a five minute gap for a while, so Sinkiewitz' team mates in the German National Team had to put the speed up, helped by the German National Track team as well as Sinkiewitz' club team Köstritzer.
