Heavy rain and one high mountain make for an exciting day
By Mark Gunter

As the lead group raced down the 2km finish straight into Guide today, Joerg Ludewig (Team Wiesenhof Felt) was the strongest. All the riders had just been through horrific conditions as they ascended the 3,880m climb in heavy rain and then descend in even worse conditions to an elevation of 2,212m.
The 172km fourth stage of the Tour of Qinghai Lake presented the first real climb of the tour. The first 50km was a gradual downhill, but by the end of the next 50km, the riders would of reached an elevation of 3,880m, the highest of the Tour this year.
The pace was high right from the get go as an early sprint (at 12.8km) was contested. Team Wiesenhof Felt was after the points and took to the front, but Alex Rasmussen would take the points. As the race contined towards the base of the climb (at 50km), the pace was high and several thwarted break attempts were made before the climbing began.
Three riders broke free at the base of the climb. Clement Lhotellerie (Skil-Shimano) and Stanislav Kozubek (PSK Whirlpool Hradec Kralove) initiated, with Sergio Barbero (Serramenti PVC Diquigiovanni-Selle Italia) following suit soon after.
Then the rain came. By the top, the three escapees were still away, but plenty of action had been happening behind them. The yellow Jersey wearer Allan Davis (Discovery Channel) had fallen of the pace and Perez Mancebo (Relax-GAM) had attacked the group. Over the top, riders trickled through in little groups and as the ascent began the rain fell heavier with claps of thunder echoing down from the peaks around.
As they reached the base of the mountain Clement Lhotellerie (Skil-Shimano) was out on his own. He had about three minutes on a small group of riders that had formed on the descent, and as the weather cleared, he rode for his life through the baron eroded hillsides approaching Guide. He was inevitably caught though just on the outskirts of town. Thousand of spectators lined the 2km finish straight and witnessed Joerg Ludewig (Team Wiesenhof Felt) take the win.
