Symington powers to solo win in cold and rain

Team Saturn report

Today's seventh stage of the Tour de l'Aude started under a cold rain, washing over the competitors with a strong, chilly wind. The first 35 uphill kilometres offered an opportunity to race for the stage win for some riders who are already out of the contention for the overall title . Great Britain was persistent in their attacks, finally launching Sarah Symington free of the group, and by kilometre 25 she was solo with a substantial gap. After a descent at kilometre 40 a group of ten cleared the field in pursuit of Symington, while race leader Ina Teutenberg (Saturn) was content to remain with the other GC riders, all racing at cruising speed.

Inspired by the thought of her British team-mate, Sue Carter, who is in hospital after a terrible crash three days ago, Symington held off the pursuing break. In an incredible show of force, the Brit soloed in after 85 kilometres by herself in the rain and wind for an outstanding win of 1:30 over the group of ten. Arenda Grinberg (Farm Frites) finished second, out-sprinting Magli Lefloch (France). The rest of the bunch arrived around five minutes after Symington. Ina Teutenberg's lead of the Tour remains the same, with her Saturn team-mate, Judith Arndt sitting in second.

The sun is scheduled to return tomorrow as the Tour hits the Pyrenées with the scenic 120 kilometre stage of Quillan -Quillan. The riders will face two major climbs, the second coming at 60 kilometers to go. Saturn's Petra Rossner, Kristy Scrymgeour, Catherine Marsal and Arndt, will have to work hard to help Teutenberg defend her yellow jersey.
