Arndt beats'em to it

By Kirsten Robbins

The women in magenta played a perfect hand during stage 6 after they out smarted their rival teams to take the win. An adrenaline packed peleton caught a small break with two kilometers to go that contained super sprinter Ina Teutenberg (T-Mobile). Seconds later T-Mobile's former world champion Judith Arndt jumped the gun on the sprinter, holding them off to take the win over the Italian Giorgia Bronzini (Safi-Pasta) and Australian Rochelle Gilmore (Menikini-Selle Italia).

After banking on a field sprint, Nurnberger's Edita Pucinskaite continues leading the Giro Donne over second placed Nicole Brandli (Bigla) and Maribel Moreno Allue (Spanish National Team) as the three G.C leaders finished with the same time as one another in the bunch finish.

One hundred and twenty riders started the nine lap race held around Cornaredo with a bang as every team sent riders up the road in hopes of an early break. The first break of three riders separated themselves on the second lap that included Kate Bates (T-Mobile), Dorte Raskussen (Menikini-Selle Italia) and Anna Zugno (Safi-Pasta). The field wasn't ready to give up that easily and caught the trio at the end of the third lap.

The fuel was added to the fire when the most threatening break of the day set sail on lap four. The break included a rider from each of the four strongest teams, stage 4 winner Ina Teutenberg (T-Mobile), Luisa Tamanini (Safi-Pasta), Adrie Visser (Team DSB Bank), and Betina Kuhn (Bigla). With none of the riders posing an imminent threat to the general classification they were allowed to get up the road, but at eighty-five kilometers into the race when the gap reached three minutes and thirty-six second and it looked as though they may not be caught the peloton started to get nervous.

Rochelle Gilmore acknowledged that her team was one of many not represented up front and was forced to react to the break with thirty kilometers to go when the chances of a field sprint lessened. "My team worked really hard today to pull back the break of four riders who were all from the strongest teams," Gilmore said. "At first my team was the only team that got on the front to chase in the last thirty kilometer and we had to use Fabiana Luperini to help."

The blue and white Italian team eventually received help coming into the finish from Raleigh Life Force Creations and the time gap quickly diminished to nothing with two kilometers to go. T-Mobile and Safi-Pasta found themselves in a good tactical position having two riders in the break which lifted the pressure off their sprinters coming into the finish.

No one expected the unexpected; in a move that is becoming some what of a trademark for the German, Arndt attached the peloton just as they swallowed up the break. Just like Cancellara did two days earlier in stage 3 of the Tour de France when he attached in the final kilometer, Arndt was able to hold on for the win. "Judith jumped with less than a kilometer to go and no one really reacted to her attack," Gilmore said. "She is a rider strong enough to get a good gap and stayed away for the win."

The speed of the sprinters was fast enough to close the gap but not enough to take the win. "Unfortunately we weren't able to bring back Arndt after she jumped with in the last kilometer" second placed Giorgia Bronzini said. "My chain jumped in the sprint and that may have slowed me down a little but I am grateful for my team who once again did a great job today."

Both Bronzini and Gilmore have been sprinting neck to neck and are looking forward to what should be another sprint finish in stage 7 120-kilometre jaunt from Misinto/Lazzate to Ceriano Laghetto/Cogliate. "I chose Bronzini's wheel coming into the finish today because I know it," Gilmore said. "I've got good legs and Bronzini and I are pretty equal, one day she's ahead and one day I'm ahead but there is always bit of luck involved in a sprint. I feel excited about another opportunity tomorrow."
