Stage 1b - August 5: Bilbao - Guernika, 107 km

Luperini wins afternoon stage, Somarriba maintains yellow

Italian triple Tour de France winner Fabiana Luperini (Edil Savino) took out the second stage of day 1 of the Grande Boucle 2001. At the end of the 107 km stage from Bilbao to Guernika, Luperini was faster than Rasa Polikievitciute (Acca Due O) and this morning's winner, Joane Somarriba (Alfa Lum), meaning that Somarriba kept her yellow jersey.

The stage actually passed Somarriba's village of Sopelana, and she kept things under tight control along with her Alfa Lum squad. Attacks from Stahurskaia, Longo, and Bubnenkova were all nullified, enabling her to contest the uphill sprint in Guernika, where she finished third.

Tomorrow's stage 2 is from Bareges to Campan (France), passing across the Tourmalet.
