As Dom posted he had a mechanical that contributed to him getting last on stage 1. Thomas Rohregger attacked late in the race and was solo for a while and was caught with a little less than 10 km to go. The climb up Menglers Hill proved to hard today for Milram sprinter Robert Förster.
HTC-Columbia's Andre Greipel (Ger) won the bunch sprint.
I hope Dom has better luck today!
