Stage and lead for Greipel – again
Team Columbia's Andre Greipel won the third stage of the Sachsen Tour and took back the leader's jersey. He won in a sprint ahead of Milram's Alberto Ongarato and Dennis Pohl of Team 3C-Gruppe. "We've shown we were the strongest squad here, even if the victory was much more difficult this time around than on Wednesday, which was more of a straight bunch sprint," Greipel said.
Friday's stage ran 188 kilonmeters from Elienburg to Freital. The stage opened with an early break, and after all the escapees were once again in the field, another group got away on the first finishing circuit. That group was caugh on the last lap with two km to go, and Columbia set up the sprint for the strong German. The most difficult part of the stage for Greipel was a three kilometre long climb on the final circuit, "where I had a tough time just hanging on to the back of the group. There were only about 30 of us left in the front group after the climb."
Saturday features a 37 km individual time trial.
