Prologue winner Susanne Ljungskog also won today's opening road stage in the Giro Toscana Femminile from Vecchiano to Altopascio over 123 km. Ljungskog, riding for Aliverti Kookai, beat Zinaida Stahurskaia (USC Chirio) and Nicole Brandli (Acca Due O) in a sprint of five, gaining a minute on the rest of the peloton.

Marcia Eicher (Swiss National team) was the main protagonist in the stage, gaining a solid minute gap alone after 30km in front approaching the only climb of the day at mid-stage. She was caught at the top by Zinaida Stahurskaya (USCI Chirio), Svetlana Boubnenkova (Edil Savino), defending 2001 champion Nicole Brandli (Acca Due O Lorena) and current tour leader Susanne Ljungskog (Aliverti Kookai).

This group of 5 put in a lot of work to keep the large chasing bunch at bay, and ultimately remained clear to finish.

The determined chase over the final 50 km came from teams ITERA, Deia Pragma-Colnago, Farm Frites and the German national team, all looking to keep their climbers in overall contention, going into to tomorrow's important mountain top finish to Volterra.

Ljungskog won the sprint of the breakaways, while Sara Felloni (Edil Savino) won the large bunch sprint, at 1'05.
