Bernhard Kohl won the Volksbank Nightrace in Waidhofen/Ybbs, Austria. The Gerolsteiner rider escaped on the last lap and won solo ahead of Thomas Rohregger (Elk Haus) and Columbia's Bernhard Eisel, in front of 15,000 fans. "I thought I was riding on the Champs-Elysees today," Kohl said after the race.

There must have been a speedy finish in Herentals, Belgium, Thursday, judging by the results: Mark Cavendish (Columbia) won the three-man sprint ahead of Quick Step's Tom Boonen and Philippe Gilbert (Francaise des Jeux).
