Australian team report

By Brian Stephens, AIS U23 coach
Today's stage of the Thuringen Rundfahrt was again well controlled by the Rabobank Team of race leader Pieter Weening. There were groups that escaped but nothing got much more than a minute over the main group which split over one of the day's climbs with the front half consisting of about 60 riders including 3 Aussies, Ben Johnson, Aaron Kemps and Daniel Mackey.
Jonathan Davis found the pace too hot today and withdrew after 50km and Bruce McIntosh finished in the back group. One of the breakaway groups hung on narrowly to take the win from the main group by 5 seconds. Aaron Kemps impressed again finishing 7th on the stage and taking the jersey as the days best under 21 year old.
