Greipel sprints to take the lead

By Susan Westemeyer

Andre Greipel of T-Mobile Team sprinted to victory in the first stage of the International Sachsen Tour, beating out Steffen Radochla of Team Wiesenhof and CSC's Juan Jose Haedo. Those three also are the leading three in the general classification.

"Andre did a lot of work for our other sprinters, like Mark Cavendish and Gerald Ciolek, in the first half of the season. He really deserved the win today," said T-Mobile Directeur Sportif Tristan Hoffman on the team's website, t-mobile-team.com.

50 km into the stage, a four-man escape group formed. Richard Geng (Heinz von Heiden-Focus), Dennis Haueisen (Milram), Laurent Didier (Regiostrom-Senges) and Thorwald Veneberg of Rabobank built up a lead of up to five minutes before the peloton absorbed them on the first lap of the finishing circuit.

Carlo Westphal of Team Gerolsteiner had the bad luck to crash twice within 10 minutes. He was taken to the hospital with suspicion of a broken collarbone.

Thursday's second stage runs 207 km from Markleeburg to Auerbach and features two first category climbs near the end of the stage.
