Pate flies, Kobzarenko reclaims lead
by Mark Zalewski, North American Editor in Saint-Jean-de-la-Lande, Quebec

Danny Pate (TIAA-CREF) set a blistering speed to win today's individual time trial, but the 15.2km course was not long enough to catch Valeriy Kobzarenko (Navigators Insurance) who reclaimed his yellow leader's jersey from Stefan Parinussa (Team Sparkasse).
"There was some wind but it wasn't super hard today," said Pate. "It was like yesterday where the headwind made the hills that much harder. I went hard out then rested a little after the turn-around on the downhill. I knew the course from a year ago. I saved a little then went hard on the final stretch where there was a tailwind. Like 70 kph!"
Kobzarenko also put in a good time, and was apparently about ten seconds ahead of Pate at the turn around according to team director Ed Beamon. "Pate must have really gone fast on the way back," he said.
"It was a technical course," said Kobzarenko regarding the rolling out-and-back parcours with one 110 degree turn and a 180 degree turn-around. "I was trying to do the course the same [power] the whole way, even. On the way out it was windy!"

Pate now moves into second place on the overall behind Kobzarenko and just in front of another Navigator, Sergey Lagutin. "The overall is definitely a goal but it will be hard to do," said Pate. "Navigators has two guys right there. You always go for the win, or at least try. But it is good to get the stage win too."
The advantage certainly sits with the Navigators Insurance team going into the final two technical circuit races Saturday in Quebec City with the wind whipping off the Saint-Laurent river and Sunday in Saint-Georges. But with only sixteen seconds between Pate and Kobzarenko, the racing is certainly not over.
