Dede Barry (T-Mobile) put in a flying performance to take the 5.7km time trial stage today at Tour de L'Aude, a ride that puts her in the yellow jersey going into stage three. Barry's time of 7'22.09 was two seconds faster than her teammate, Kristin Armstrong, who took second place.

Barry was happy with her ride and feels confident that her team can continue this good form throughout the rest of the tour. "I'm really happy," she said. "I felt like a rocket on my new Giant TT bike. I really think our team has an advantage on the others now. Kristen was super today too."

Finishing in third place was Sara Carrigan (Australian National team) with overall tour favourites like Judith Arndt (Nurnberger), Lyne Bessette (Canadian National Team) and Edita Pucinskaite (Michela Fanini Record Box) all in the top ten.

Yesterday's winner, Alison Wright (Nobili Rubineterie-Guerciotti) put in a good performance to finish 19th in the stage, but the 24" she lost to Barry lost her the yellow jersey.

The course was flat and not too technical. Out of the blocks, riders headed into a headwind for the first three kilometers. From there they hit a few corners before turning towards the finish line with a tailind for the final two kilometers.
