Australian team report

By Brian Stephens, AIS U23 coach
Today's stage of the Thüringen Rundfahrt was supposed to be the toughest but the Rabobank team put the bunch under control and the big splits didn't come until the final 25km. We had 3 in the front group of 43 including our young guys Arron Kemps and Ben Johnson as well as Bruce McIntosh. Rory Sutherland withdrew from the race at the 60 kilometre mark complaining of knee pain.
Thomas Ziegler from the German TEAG Kostritzer won the stage in a wild, crash marred sprint. Aaron Kemps was 11th. He had never ridden a race over 150 km until he arrived in Italy 2 weeks ago.
