Spanish rider Juan Olmo (Duja/Tavira) won a very fast second half stage of the Tour de Normandie this afternoon, beating Stéphane Bonsergent (C.C. Nogent Sur Oise) and Gilles Canouet (Agritubel) in a bunch sprint in Avranches. But there were no changes to the lead, and Kai Reus (Rabobank) maintained his jersey with a 17 second advantage over Stéphane Pétilleau (Bretagne - Jean Floc'h).

The 80 km afternoon fifth stage was once again extremely aggressive with an opening hour of racing of over 49 km/h. After 30 km, 27 riders moved clear of the group, including race leader Kai Reus and second placed Stéphane Pétilleau. Once again, however, team TIAA-CREF missed the break and was forced to chase down the leaders again. Combined with Auber 93, they put in a long an exhausting chase to the beginning of the circuits around the city of Avranches. The 4 km circuit, included racing up the same hill that Bradley McGee used to launch his 2002 TdF stage victory. On the final lap, Juan Olmo Manacho moved clear of the field in the final 300m and won the stage for the Duja/Tavira team.

The most significant event on the GC today was that 6th place overall and Team TIAA-CREF leader, Will Frischkorn, dropped out due to severe tendonitis in his left hamstring.

Tomorrow's stage, a grueling 173km, heads back towards the finish of the Tour of Normandie. The stage will once again be a hilly and aggressive test.
