Stage 5 quotes

Robbie McEwen (Davitamon-Lotto), 5th:

"Steegmans was really apologising after the finish. He misread the signs and thought the 500 metre to go sign was 200 so he just took off. He put me on the front with 300 to go which was just too far out in a roaring head wind. I tried to get back on the wheels but got a bit boxed in. I finally got a bit of a run but it was disappointing. He will learn from this, we both will."
