Rothaus Regio-Tour International – Stage 4

The Rothaus Regio-Tour International takes place across 3 countries - Germany, France and Switzerland.

Stage 4 brings us to the Individual Time Trial in Sexau, with the course covering 26km on a challenging course with a few uphills and tricky descents.

The surprise winner of the Trime Trial was Mikhail Ignatiev (Tinkoff Credit Systems) who took the stage by a very handy 34" over Tour leader Moises Duenas Nevado (Agritubel) with Andrei Kunitski (Acqua & Sapone-Caffe Mokambo) taking 3rd place at 56".

Race favourite Michael Rogers (T-Mobile) lost himself large chunks of time when he ran himself off the road. He ended up coming in in 4th place at 1' 06".
