Baldwin is Time Trial King but Lieswyn keeps yellow
By Kristy Scrymgeour
Chris Baldwin (Navigators) lived up to the title of US National Time Trial Champion this morning when he won the 15.5km TT event at Grand Prix Cycliste de Beauce. His time of 19 min 48 seconds was less than a second faster than that of tour leader John Lieswyn (7UP-Maxxis) and therefore not enough to steal the yellow jersey. However Baldwin now jumps back into second place in the General Classification after being delegated to 5th place after yesterday's mountain stage.
The time trial was contested on beautiful sunny conditions with only a slight wind. Riders began to race the clock at 9:30am on a four corner loop on rolling terrain which started and finished in the town of St-Jean-de-la-Lande. Svein Tuft took the lead early in the day with a time of 20'35", but was eventually knocked out of the number one position as GC contenders fought for precious seconds. Eric Wohlberg (Canadian National Team), Danny Pate (Prime Alliance) and Tomas Konecny (Ed's System ZVVZ) all had great rides to round of the top five, but Baldwin and Lieswyn were the strongest on the day.
Lieswyn's strong ride earned him the right to keep the yellow jersey going into the criterium tonight, but the race is not over yet. Tomorrow's circuit race is challenging to say the least and Lieswyn's 7Up-Maxxis team will have their work cut out for them once again in order to retain the lead and win the tour overall. The 165km circuit race consists of 15 laps of a hilly course which starts and finishes once again in St Georges. The course being different to last year will not be less difficult and is considered one of the hardest stages of the tour. Last year Lubor Tesor took the win and Michael Rogers and his Mapei-Quickstep team were able to defend the jersey. No doubt Tesor will want to win this stage again with his new Ed's System ZVVZ team and Navigators will be doing everything possible to break the 7UP-Maxxis team for Baldwin.
Tonight's 60km criterium will start at 6:30pm in St. Georges.
