19th International Hessen Rundfahrt - 2.4Germany, October 4-8, 2000Main Page Results Previous stage Stage 2 - October 5: Schotten - Wetzlar, 184.0 kmSwiss doubleRoger Beuchat (Post Swiss) and René Stadelmann (Phonak) pulled off an impressive win in stage two of the Hessen Rundfarht, after breaking away at 25 kilometres and riding to a huge advantage. Beuchat took the stage from Stadelmann by 28 seconds in the end, with the peloton another 27 seconds behind. Noan Lelarge (Bonjour) was with the pair at first, but fell and was unable to rejoin them. The two Swiss riders built up a 15 minute lead, but this was only really tackled in the last 50 kilometres. Beuchat attacked Stadelmann in the final kilometre, and the latter was completely exhausted and could not follow. Estonian Janek Tombac (Cofidis) won the bunch sprint from Walter Beneteau and Bert Dietz. Tomorrow's third stage travels from Wetzlar to Korbach (192 km) into the northern region of Hessen, with several climbs en route.
