Another Schleck, another mountain stage win
By Susan Westemeyer
Rivalry among brothers is not unknown, even in cycling, and only a few days after older brother Frank Schleck won a mountain stage in the Tour de France, younger brother Andy Schleck (CSC) followed his example and won the queen stage in the Sachsen International Tour.
The stage was again shortened due to the heat, and the heat apparently affected the riders, too. The peloton allowed a group of seven to get away and stay away. At the end, three riders broke out to make out the victory among themselves. Schleck took his first pro win with three seconds over Marek Rutkiewitz (Intel Action) and seven seconds over Volodymyr Dyudya (Milram). The peloton rolled in some 20 minutes later. Alexander Kolobnev, who was in the peloton, successfully defended his leader's jersey.
Saturday sees the race's time trial, which will be held over a flat 24.6 km course. It is expected to decide the race, as the first ten riders in the GC are separated by only 30 seconds.
