Stage 5 - June 7: Mont-Saint-Hilaire, 115 km
Wood takes it all in Montreal
By Kirsten Robbins in Montreal, Canada

The world-class women's peloton ended the Tour du Grand Montreal on top of Mont St Hilaire where Oenone Wood (T-Mobile) held off Trixi Worrack (Équipe Nürnberger) and Giorgia Bronzini (Safi - Pasta Zara Manhattan) to stamp her authority all over the 2007 event, taking home the points and sprints jerseys to go with her overall victory and two stage wins.
"I surprised myself today because I wasn't feeling that great," said Wood after the up hill sprint. "I was just lucky that I had such a good team to do all the work for me. They brought me into good position for the climb and I knew all I had to do was hold on to Trixi's wheel. She had a lead out from her teammate Claudia Hausler and she attacked with about 300m to go. That meant that I had the opportunity to hold onto her wheel until 100m to go and I decided to counter and go for the win."
Wood and Worrack were separated by a mere six seconds at the start of the ultimate stage, and with several time bonuses up for grabs there was a strong possibility that Worrack could take the lead. Worrack won the first sprint over Wood, causing a little apprehension amongst the T-Mobile team. "I knew that she was going to have a strong finish because she is a very good rider on a hill like this," explained Wood. "I was concerned about the time bonus because she beat me in the first sprint but I'm just lucky I had a good team to control it after that."
Worrack took second by one second in last year's tour and knew it would be difficult to gain six seconds this time around given the flatter course than the previous year. "I got the first time bonus but it is really hard to gain seconds in this tour because the gaps are always so close," said the German. "I have done this tour three times and it has always been this close. I remember last year I had even less of a gap and I couldn't close it. The stages here are not easy but it is not possible to make up time that you've lost."

Worrack commented on the strength of Wood's T-Mobile team, and how proud she was of her own team for not giving up their goal of winning the race. "This stage was not hard enough to split the bunch and T-Mobile was so strong today," she said. "My team was strong too, and we did what we could. I started the sprint but all Oenone had to do was stay on my wheel - I tried everything I could but I couldn't lose her from my wheel so she won."
Cheerwine's opportunist Chrissy Ruiter initiated a breakaway that caused upheaval amongst the leaders on GC after the first climb. She rode solo gaining a maximum of 1'15 before three riders bridged up to her including Meredith Miller (TEAm Lipton) and Carla Ryan (Australian National Team). The four stayed ahead of the peloton for 40km until T-Mobile and Nürnberger sent all their riders to the front to bring them back.
"The bunch split over the first climb and my team worked really hard to bring it back," recalled Wood. "The break went away and we had Chantel Beltman and Anke Wichmann bring it back to within 15 seconds before the next climb. After that climb Anke and Chantel got straight back on the front and chased it back all together. My team really rode well today. They just kept coming back to do so much work and then come straight back to the front for more."

Safi-Pasta's sprinter Giorgia Bronzini placed third in the field sprint and marked her fourth podium in five stages. Bronzini commented on how pleased she was in her performance this week and her preparations for the Giro d'Italia Femminile (women's Tour of Italy) starting on July 6. "I think we have had very good training for the Giro d'Italia," said Bronzini. "I like this race very much because I was able to be on the podium and today I felt very good on the hills - it is incredible that I could be third today."
T-Mobile showed their dominance during this year's tour with Wood claming three of the four jerseys on offer. The magenta team also placed three riders in the top four, enough to bring home the overall team prize.
German national champion Claudia Hausler (Équipe Nürnberger) came out on top in the Queen of the Mountains standings, while her team-mate Worrack and Safi-Pasta's Bronzini divided up the remaining podium spots in the sprint and points competitions.
