14th Int. Thüringen-Rundfahrt der Frauen - 2.9.1Germany, July 24-29, 2001Main page Results Previous stage Stage 1 - July 25: Zeulenroda - Greiz, 115 kmMelchers takes stage 1 and yellowBy James Victor, AIS Perfect racing conditions today, which is a contrast from previous years here, and the bunch was certainly after some very aggressive racing. A group of 8 was clear through the middle of the stage, including Australian Naomi Williams, and Farm Frites rider Hanka Kupfernagel doing most of the work. This was eventually brought back and the counter attacks continued to the finish. A strong attack by Mirjam Melchers (Acca Due O-Lorena) with around 5km to go, over the last climb, being 2 km long and 16% grade, spread the field over nearly 4 mins. Melchers finished alone 22 secs. in front of a group of 13, including prologue winner Anna Millward (Saturn), young British rider Ceris Gilfilian (British National Team), and the Polikeviciute twins (Acca Due O-Lorena). 1 Mirjam Melchers (Ned) Acca Due O-HP-Lorena Camicie 3.04.19 2 Monica Valen (Nor) Team Sponsorservice 0.22 3 Magali Le Floch (Fra) French National Team 4 Heidi Van de Vijver (Bel)
