Stage 5 - May 31: Friedberg - Gunzenhausen, 166.4km
Greipel three-peats, Gerdemann wins overall
By Monika Prell in Gunzenhausen

André Greipel (Team Columbia-Highroad) won the final stage of the Bayern Rundfahrt from Friedberg to Gunzenhausen, his third victory of the event. Greipel beat compatriot Heinrich Haussler (Cervélo TestTeam) and the Spaniard Koldo Fernández (Euskaltel-Euskadi) to the line in the field sprint concluding the 166.4-kilometre stage five.
Team Milram’s Linus Gerdemann defended his race lead on the final stage to win the Bayern Rundfahrt's general classification. Gerdemann finished the five-day German stage race 10 seconds ahead of Maxime Monfort (Team Columbia-Highroad) and 26 seconds in front of David Le Lay (Agritubel). Gerdemann assumed the race leadership after Saturday's 26-kilometre time trial in which he finished third, supplanting previous leader Markus Eibegger (ELK Haus) who dropped from first to fifth on general classification.
A large gathering of spectators were on hand in Friedberg to watch the start of the Bayern Rundfahrt's final day of racing. At 11:15 a.m. the official start was given and the 107 remaining riders set out on the 166.4-kilometre stage.
The first attacks were made by teams who had yet to achieve a stage victory, amongst them Euskaltel-Euskadi, Garmin-Slipstream, Team Nutrixxion Sparkasse, Agritubel and the Thüringer Energie Team, but the peloton was not willing to let them go. The spectators at the first intermediate sprint in Aichach saw the entire peloton arrive together with Andrè Greipel (Team Columbia-Highroad) winning the classification in front of Simon Geschke (Skil-Shimano) and Martin Reimer (Cervélo TestTeam).
Several kilometres later, Grischa Janorschke (Team Nutrixxion Sparkasse) was able to escape and was joined by Florian Völk (Heizomat Mapei). After 74 kilometres of racing the duo's lead over the peloton stretched to nine minutes.
Völk reached the first classified climb of the day, a category one ascent, ahead of Janorschke while Maarten Nejens (Topsport Vlaanderen) and Janorschke’s teammate Eric Baumann crossed in third and fourth respectively at the head of the peloton.
Team Milram began to work at the front of the peloton and their efforts reduced the break's lead. After 109 kilometres the leading duo reached the summit of the category two climb in Treuchtlingen with an advantage of 3:50 over the peloton. Völk again won maximum points ahead of Janorschke while Topsport Vlaanderen’s Thomas de Gendt took third place honours on the climb.
Twenty kilometres before the finish Team Milram, Team Columbia-Highroad and Cervélo TestTeam drove the peloton and reduced the break's lead to one minute. With nine kilometres remaining the break was absorbed and the teams of the sprinters prepared for a bunch finish to decide the stage.
