Grabsch makes it two for Milram
By Susan Westemeyer
Team Milram took its second stage win in the Bayern Rundfahrt Friday, as Ralf Grabsch broke from an escape group 3 km before the finish line. He finished six seconds ahead of CSC's Christian Müller and 8 seconds ahead of Murilo Fischer, Naturino-Sapore di Mare. It was Grabsch's first win since 1999.
"The stage was very hilly and that made it difficult," he said. "The rain just made it more difficult. I only took my rain jacket off some 20 km before the finish." He was part of a 11 man group that got away after only 12 km. After 60 km, the group had a lead of seven minutes, and the eventual winner was starting to have hopes. "When I saw that our advantage kept on getting bigger and that they weren't reacting in the field, I started to think that we might have a chance to come through."
Saturday's fourth stage is an individual time trial of 25,4 km from Plattling to Deggendorf.
