Thijs takes the stage, Cheula the yellow
By Susan Westemeyer
Erwin Thijs of Unibet.com broke out of a five-man breakaway group to win the sixth stage of the Peace Race Thursday. The leader's jersey changed hands again and now belongs to Gianpaolo Cheula (Barloworld).
Thijs, Giuseppe Palumbo, Kirk O'Bee, Lars Wackernagel and Fraser MacMaster broke away early in the race and had a lead of up to nine minutes in the headwind and constant rain. With five km left to go, Thijs made his move and stayed away to finish 29 seconds ahead of Palumbo and 36 seconds ahead of O'Bee.
Back in the peloton, race leader Kanstantsin Siutsou (Acqua e Sapone) was battling it out with the second-placed Cheula. As they finally reached the finish line some five minutes after the day's winner, Cheula managed to finish 9 seconds before Siutsou, who fell to fourth overall.
Friday's seventh stage is the race's longest, 192 km from Delitzsch to Thale. A closing lap to be ridden twice takes the riders up the Category 1 climb, the Hexentanzplatz (Witches' Dance Place).
