Trust House Women's Tour - 2.2New Zealand, March 1-3, 2006Main Page Results Overall standings Stage Details Previous Stage Next Stage Stage 2 - March 2: Martinborough - Masterton, 99kmTeutenberg triumphsBy Nick Warren in Masterton Ina Teutenberg (T-Mobile) took a fine win on stage two of the Trust House Women's Tour of Wellington after a fairly uneventful race which finished in Masterton. Sarah Ulmer (Trust House NZ National Team) finished in second place to hold onto her leader's yellow jersey. "It's really great to win today," said the German star. "I think Sunday's (World Cup) race will be really hard, I heard it's a tough course." Ulmer, ever the popular people's champion praised her teammates' hard work during the stage. "They did an awesome job and really looked after me today. They'll probably be really buggered tonight." Kiwi supporters were out in force throughout the day. "I think I heard my name shouted on every corner," commented Ulmer. The Tour's only long road stage provided little action despite the rolling terrain and light winds. Perhaps wary of the brutal Kureaw Hill, which came after 69km of racing, the peloton stuck pretty much together and any attacks were soon put down by a watchful Trust House NZ team. However, there were numerous crashes throughout the day, the most serious of which saw Wholly Bagels rider Pernell Fletcher taken to hospital with a fractured wrist. Other abandonments were also to follow, including Australian national team member Amanda Spratt who climbed off at the 65km mark. Approaching Kureaw Hill, and with the peloton still together, Melissa Holt (Trust House) set a ferocious pace on the front, immediately ejecting weaker riders from the rear of the pack. Whilst only 2km long, Kureaw is steep enough to pack a good punch and by the summit a group of 25 had left the rest behind. Nicole Cooke (Univega) was first over the top to claim the Tour's only Queen of the Mountains points and therefore the QOM polka dot jersey. After a long 8km descent followed by a rapid chase along the valley towards Masterton, it was all back together save for three riders who managed to slip off the front. Sarah Düster (Univega), Svetlana Bubnenkova (Russia) and Susanne Ljungskog (Sandoval Promotions) enjoyed a brief 12km of freedom before being brought back into the fold by Ulmer's Trust House team with just 8km remaining. An inevitable bunch sprint came after sporadic attacks during the final few kilometres, Teutenberg out-sprinting Ulmer to underline the great form she showed during last week's Geelong Tour in Australia. Italian Georgia Bronzini (AS Team FRW) was third.
