Stage 5 - Septebmer 1: Cosne-sur-Loire - Sancerre, 71 km

Pucinskaite increases lead

By James Victor, AIS women's coach

Today's 70km stage was certainly the hardest and most decisive of the tour, and provided a lot of aggression.

The Aussies worked hard early, with plenty of counter attacking from the whole team before the climbs, endeavouring to work Carpe-Diem's chasing team.

Australian Sara Carrigan was only 32 seconds from the lead, and the continuous early pressure saw a determined Edita Pucinskaite (Alfa Lum) and team-mate Tatiana Stiajkina attack hard through the final 40km of hard undulations, with Pucinskaite setting-up a near impossible lead into the final stage.

Kym Shirley rode strongly over the final kilometres, with numerous counter attacking from team-mate Sara Carrigan, and Kym getting clear on the final climb and finishing just ahead of the chase group for 3rd place.

Tomorrow's final stage is a relatively flat 120km with 4 laps of a flat 6 km finishing circuit.
